Foraminifera (some of the shells coated with manganese), Mollusc-shell 
fragments, Kchinoid spines, otoliths, Tunicate spicules, coccoliths, rhabdoliths;

PTEROPOD OOZE: cream colored, granular, quite incoherent; very little 
fine material; consists of Pteropods, Heteropods, pelagic and bottom-living 
Foraminifera, small Gasteropods, Mollusc-shell fragments, Coral fragments 
coated with manganese, otoliths, Ostracodes, Tunicate spicules, coccoliths, 
rhabdoliths; Sponge spicules, Radiolaria; small fragments of obsidian,

the nature of the deposit in situ. It consists of fragments of Pteropods, 
pelagic and bottom-living Foraminifera, otoliths, Mollusc-shell fragments 
and small Gasteropods (Pleurotoma), Tunicate spicules; small fragments of 
obsidian, and grains of manganese.

sisting of fragments of Corals blackened with manganese, the largest 7 mm.
