Scientific paper

Iridium abundances in Mississippi River suspended matter and Gulf of Mexico sediments are reported. It is suggested that these values may be representative of much of the upper continental crust accessible to rock weathering. The data imply that the processes leading to the well-known enrichment of iridium in deep-sea sediments are similar to those which enrich elements such as nickel and cobalt.
