Abstract—This paper reports data, including new analyses, on the contents of Ni, Co, V, Mo, Fe, Mn, Zn, Ba,
Sc, Y, Cd, Rb, Cs, and W in the sediments of the Deryugin Basin. The features of the distribution of chemical
elements in the bottom area were identified, and the zones of maximum accumulation of the major and trace
elements were allocated. A correlation between the elements was shown.

Keywords: bottom sediments, Deryugin Basin, Sea of Okhotsk, distribution of major and trace elements
