Description:

Abstract:

This portion of the data release presents X-ray diffractograms of rock samples collected from Von Damm vent field, Mid-Cayman Rise, in the Caribbean Sea. These data were collected in 2020 (USGS Field Activity 2020-602-FA). Location information for the sample is included in each Attribute Definition of this metadata file.

Purpose:

These data serve to expand the knowledge and statistics for deep ocean marine mineral occurrences and composition within the global ocean.

Supplemental_Information:

Funding for this research is acknowledged from the U.S. Geological Survey Coastal and Marine Hazards and Resources Program, through the U.S. Geological Survey Pacific Coastal and Marine Science Center.
Additional information about the USGS field activities from which these data were derived is available online at: https://cmgds.marine.usgs.gov/fan_info.php?fan=2020-602-FA Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government.

Data_Quality_Information:

Attribute_Accuracy:

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:

X-ray diffraction data were tested for accuracy by analyzing a powdered quartz reference sample to verify the one hundred intensity peak at 26.6 degree two-theta. When the quartz peak was in the proper position, we infer that other measured peak positions in the sample are accurate. Peak intensities are considered semiquantitative since no quantitative standards were analyzed for this dataset.

Logical_Consistency_Report: No formal logical accuracy tests were conducted.
Completeness_Report:

Dataset is considered complete for the information presented, as described in the abstract. Users are advised to read the rest of the metadata record carefully for additional details.

Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy:

Horizontal_Positional_Accuracy_Report:

Vertical_Positional_Accuracy The vertical accuracy was determined using multiple DVLs (Doppler Velocity Loggers) on the ROV, which are accurate to less than 1 m.

Lineage:

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Samples are rocks and were collected by the ROV's manipulator arm. Once recovered shipboard photographed and returned to shore. Amy Gartman attended 2020-602-FA, cruise name AT42-22.

Process_Date: 20200114

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

At USGS, bulk samples and subsamples were collected from relevant regions of the rocks.

Process_Date: 20200801
Source_Produced_Citation_Abbreviation: samples

Process_Step:

Process_Description:

Powdered samples were backloaded and tamped into sample holders and run in a Panalytical X'Pert3 x-ray diffractometer (XRD; https://www.malvernpanalytical.com/) with CuK-alpha radiation and graphite monochromator. Measurements were taken at intervals of 0.2 degrees 2-theta between 4 degrees and 70 degrees 2-theta at 40 kilovolts and 45 milliamps.
