X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements of cobalt adsorbed on MnO 2 reveal strong evidence that Co(II) has been oxidized to Co(III). The manganese spectra are characteristic of Mn(IV). Model calculations suggest that Co(II) cannot be oxidized by O 2 to Co(III) in bulk solution at seawater concentrations but that the oxidation can proceed in the presence of the strong electric field at the MnO 2 -solution interface. Ni(II), however, cannot be oxidized at the interface except at very high concentrations. These calculations suggest that the oxidation of Co(II) can explain the geochemical separation of cobalt from nickel.
