what is the mark and information on sea mines dropped by the RAF

Does anyone have information or a link I can look at for info on 'sea mines' that were 'sowen' by the RAF in 1939-45.

Mark, names, sizes etc would be a good start.

Cheers,

Danny

In ORB´s I have found the following designations:

F642 Sub Ass 23 Mk. VI
B 230 (1day -9 day) Mk. IV
D 406 Mk. IV
G 726 Mk. IV
G 718 (PIM 2, 4, 6) Mk.IV

Hope this helps.
