It is state that in deposits of all age layers from Turon (Upper-Jurassic) to Pleistocene, excluding Barrem (lower Cretaceous) and Dat (Upper Cretaceous) ore-bearing beds are present. Their thickness varies from tens of centimeters to several metres and they contain disseminated sulfide and (or) oxide minerals, sometimes FMN, Co-scums, zeolite, glauconite, and phosphates. Process of laterite formation in ocean is analyzed. In is shown that elision waters from montmorillonite gleys are enriched by Fe, Mn, Al, Ni, Co, Ti and rare metals: Re, Se, U, V, Mo, Sc, Bi.completedOceanographyargilliteAtlantic Oceancarbonate rocksCenozoicchemical compositionclastic rocksclastic sedimentsclayconcretionsCretaceousDeep Sea Drilling ProjectEoceneEquatorial Atlanticferromanganese compositionframework silicatesHolocenehydroxidesJurassiclimestonelithofaciesLower Cretaceousmanganese compositionmarine geologyMesozoicNeogeneocean floorsOligoceneoxidesPaleogenephosphatesPleistocenepotential depositspyriteQuaternarysecondary structuressedimentary rockssedimentary structuressedimentsshalesilicatessiltstonestratigraphysulfidesTertiaryUpper Jurassiczeolite groupRussiangeoscientificInformation-80.000020.0000-60.000075.0000Atlantic Ocean
