Major-element, trace-element, and Nd isotopic compositions were determined for the early Proterozoic banded iron formations (IFs) from the Hamersley Basin (Australia). The data place some constraints on the composition of the early Proterozoic oceans. It was found that the MgO contents measured in the IFs and those of modern metalliferous sediments are very similar. This implies either approximately constant amounts of seafloor hydrothermal alteration relative to ocean volumes or a higher continental Mg flux into the oceans during the Archean.
