Concluding remarks In this study, Raman spectroscopy analysis of nontronite and glauconite-nontronite mixed-layer phases from deep-sea hydrothermal fields reveals that these phyllosilicates have diagnostic Raman spectral features that include a series of strong peaks in the low wavenumber region (<700 cm SP -1 sp ) and the hydroxyl domain (3500-3700 cm SP -1 sp ). To fill these knowledge gaps, this study reports a comprehensive Raman spectral characterization of nontronite and glauconite-nontronite mixed-layer phases (i.e., vertical mixing/interstratification of glauconite and nontronite layers) from seafloor hydrothermal fields. Chemistry/structure-dependent Raman spectral features of glauconite and nontronite For the analyzed nontronite and glauconite-nontronite mixed-layer samples, the covariations between Raman spectral properties and octahedral chemistry (Table 2; Figs.
