Siliceous ooze is one of the several types of soil that can be found on the floors of deep oceans. Unsuprisingly, such layers occasionally contain an aquifer.

Siliceous ooze is a type of pelagic sediment. It is formed by the silica in diatoms and other microorganisms, as opposed to calcareous ooze, which is formed by particles of calcium carbonate.
