Abstract: The "Taojiang-type manganese" is situated at the slope-basin margin factes zone of Modaoxi Formation, Middle Odivician in Central Hunan Province.The manganese-bearing series consists of manganese ore,black carbonaceous mudrock and mass clayrock.The manganese ore bed shows a lot of graded bedding, parallel bedding, small scale cross-bedding, horizontal bedding,braccisted structure and scour mark Structure ......etc.,with ABCE or ABE Bouma sequence,which may berecognized as carbonate gravity flow deposits (turbidite).The formation of manganese ore was affected and controlled by tectonics, sedimentary facies and pelaeogeography, sedimentary geological events and physicochemical condition of medium and so on.There are evidences of sedimentology and geochemistry Showing that the manganese originates from hydrothermal exhalation and extrusion at the spreading sea-noor.The mechanism of manganese ore is divided into two Stugds:first stage is Mn2+ migration in anoxic water;second stage is Mn2+ precipitation and replacing carbonate ooze.The higher content manganese ore is formed to benefit by recrystallization in the fate diasensis sarge of the sedimentary rock.
