Deep seabed mining is an increasingly important and controversial topic. With the aim of better informing all interested stakeholders, the International Seabed Authority has started to provide verified and up-to-date information and facts on deep seabed exploration and exploitation. This page is intended to provide facts that help to better understand the benefits and challenges of deep seabed mining.
In the fact check on the global carbon cycle, a dynamic graphic developed by the KDM Marine Mineral Resources Strategy Group was cited (see below). A number of scientific publications by members of the Strategy Group are also cited.
The KDM Marine Mineral Resources Strategy Group aims to contribute to a better understanding of marine mineral resources in one of the least understood areas of the world.
