Geochemistry of fluids from Earth’s deepest ridge-crest hot-springs: Piccard hydrothermal field, Mid-Cayman Rise

Hosted in basaltic substrate on the ultra-slow spreading Mid-Cayman Rise, the Piccard hydrothermal field is the deepest currently known seafloor hot-spring (4957–4987 m). Due to its great depth, the Piccard site is an excellent natural system for investigating the influence of extreme pressure on th...
