Who Gains From Deep-Sea Mining [PDF]

, 1985
The Third United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) will probably be remembered as one of the longest diplomatic battles between DCs and LDCs fought in the twentieth century. The issue at stake was nothing less than a redistribution of ocean wealth, i. e.

Deep-sea mining

2020
Mining the extensive accumulations of minerals on the seafloor of the deep ocean might provide important resources, but it also has the potential to lead to widespread environmental impacts. Some of these impacts are unknown, and some may differ for the three main resource types: polymetallic nodules, seafloor massive sulphides, and polymetallic ...

Precautionary management of deep-sea mining

Marine Policy, 2002
Abstract Interest in deep-sea mining developed in the early 1970s, with a focus on manganese nodules in international waters. Mining may actually occur first, however, on rich polymetallic sulfide deposits associated with hydrothermal vents within exclusive economic zones.

Lessons Learned from Deep-Sea Mining

Science, 2000
The first attempt to exploit deep-sea manganese nodules ended in failure as a result of the collapse of world metal prices, the onerous provisions imposed by the U. N. Conference on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), and the overoptimistic assumptions about the viability of nodule mining. Attention then focused on cobalt-rich manganese crusts from seamounts.
