Abstract
The analysis of the submicroscopic textures of the cobaltiferous crusts from the Magellan Seamounts has shown that biofilms−ferromanganese stromatolite builders absorb petrogenic components (SiO2, Al2O3, P2O5, etc.) from the environment and use them for the formation of a columnar structure.
