Manganese

  • Chapter
Book cover Principles of Plant Nutrition

Abstract

Manganese occurs in various primary rocks and particularly in ferromagnesian materials. The Mn released from these rocks by weathering forms a number of secondary minerals the most prominent being pyrolusite (MnIVO2) and manganite [MnIIIO (OH)]. Manganese and Fe oxides often occur together in nodules and iron-pans. Total Mn levels may differ considerably between soils and are in a range from 20 to 3000 µg Mn/g (Gambrell 1996).
