Notes on Vent Field Description:
hydrothermal deposits; note: this location from the old InterRidge vents database does not appear to be in Crane et al. (1985) - their figure with all potential vent fields plotted only goes as far north as 48 deg.; this location appears to be in the Endeavour Offset; depth from GeoMapApp using position
