What are ways that the oozes and manganese nodules are different?

Oozes are deep-sea sediments composed of microscopic shells and organic matter, while manganese nodules are hard, mineral formations found on the ocean floor. Oozes are soft and can accumulate quickly, while manganese nodules grow slowly over millions of years. Oozes are primarily composed of calcium carbonate, while manganese nodules contain high levels of metals like manganese, iron, and nickel.

Why are nodules not mined for ores such as manganese and iron?

Nodules containing manganese and iron are found deep in the ocean floor, making it challenging and expensive to mine them. Additionally, the environmental impacts of deep-sea mining, such as disruption to marine ecosystems, make it a less attractive option compared to land-based mining.
