Abstract
High-manganese kutnohorite was found in the surface layer of bottom sediments of the South Caspian basin by the method of X-ray diffraction for the first time. Bottom sediments were collected by a multicorer during the 39th voyage of R/V Rift in 2012. Study of the samples by a complex of methods (X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, atomic absorption, and analysis of the carbon isotope composition) allowed us to attribute kutnohorite to autigenic minerals of the early stage of diagenesis.
