I am currently researching the Mud volcanoes of the Mariana Trench.
Serpentine muds have been found there and it is speculated that they
originate
from the volcanoes. I was wondering if there is any recent info out there
on this subject and if so could you let me know where to get it or if is
small
enough, could you send it to me?? I need the info within the next two weeks
if that is possible. Thanks in advance.

Dear Kara,
I searched GeoRef, a bibliographic database maintained by the American
Geophysical Union that contains references from 1785 to june 1995, using
the key words mud volcano, Mariana, and serpentine in various
combinations. There were no articles that had all three key words. The
single reference list below had the key words mud volcano and
serpentine. Good luck.
