摘要: Mineral distribution patterns determined from 48 samples in the deep Gulf of Mexico surficial sediments can be explained terms input source and differential settling. Quartz, kaolinite, illite reflect their source. Calcite percentage increases southeast is accounted for, primarily, by biologic activity. The Mississippi River reflected high percentages quartz illite. A kaolinite reflects provenance United States Mexican Rocky Mountains. Sediments away mouth Rio Grande have a content. Smectite chlorite exhibit random not related to input; these are interpreted as being caused urrents during slow
