Where does sat and mineral in the ocean come from?

Saturation and minerals in the ocean primarily originate from weathering of rocks on land, which releases various minerals and nutrients that are transported to the sea by rivers. Additionally, underwater volcanic activity and hydrothermal vents contribute minerals directly to the ocean. Oceanic processes, such as the breakdown of marine organisms and the recycling of sediments, also play a significant role in the distribution and concentration of these minerals. Finally, atmospheric deposition, including dust and pollutants, can introduce additional mineral content to ocean waters.
