| Several pieces of olivine-plqagioclase basalt ripped off near the summit of North Gemini seamount. Basalt is relatively fresh and vesicular. Coatings of Fe- and Mn- oxides are present but quite thin (< 1mm), suggesting that the fragments are not very old (e.g < 1Ma). Approx 10 fragments in total, no fine material |
