Framing deep sea mining in/with oceania [PDF]
The Extractive Industries and SocietyAlthough deep sea mining (DSM) can be understood in global terms, much of its emergent politics has been centred in an Oceanian context. This is evident for both mineral exploration at the abyssal plain of the Clarion-Clipperton Zone and the debates over deep sea resource extraction in the Exclusive Economic Zones of several Pacific Island Countries ...

Deep-sea mining as an emerging threat to deep sea ecosystems
The deep sea is the biggest ecosystem on Earth, representing around 90% of the marine environment. Despite its remoteness and inaccessibility, the deep sea is under constant threat from anthropogenic activities. Among them is deep-sea mining, that is quickly rising as an appealing alternative to land-based mining.Marlene Pinheiro +6 more

Pinpointing no-mining areas in the deep sea
Science, 2018Oceanography Areas near mid-ocean ridges are being approved for mining, and protecting these diverse seafloor ecosystems is critical The International Seabed Authority is responsible for regulating deep-sea mining in the high seas. This agency has developed environmental management plans to protect local diversity by identifying areas where mining ...

The world appears to be on the verge of commercial deep-sea mining for polymetallic nodules in the Clayton-Clipperton Zone in the Pacific Ocean. Access to critical materials, needed for the energy transition to combat climate change, is the main argument presented to start this mining.This paper philosophically reviews the prospect of deep-sea mining ...
