(a) Mineral deposits

It was agreed that the primary outputs from the project will be a geological model of polymetallic nodule deposits in the CCZ and a prospector's guide containing a narrative description of the key factors relevant to exploration for polymetallic nodules in the CCZ, including data and available information on known deposits.

During the first half of 2005, the Secretariat has continued with its efforts to develop a geological model of the polymetallic nodule deposits of the CCZ.

And that's where the richest diamond deposits are.

Based on these discussions, the Commission considered that, despite the differences in geometry and dimensions of the two types of deposits, estimations of the likely mineable ore indicated that the total exploration area should be the same for each deposit.

The occupier was mining phosphate deposits in the mines at Bou Craa in such a way that depletion threatened in the near future.

The workshop also recommended a work programme leading to the establishment of a reliable geological model of polymetallic nodule deposits in the CCZ within three or four years.

Two mineral deposits should be mentioned one in Lueshe (Rutsuru) and another in Bingo (Beni) in North Kivu.

(b) the estimation of mineable deposits, when such deposits have been identified, which shall include details of the grade and quantity of the proven, probable and possible (polymetallic sulphide) (cobalt crust) reserves and the anticipated mining conditions

The Council also recognized the need to monitor the market for the deposits and techniques for mining given technological changes.

As currently envisioned, the geological model of the polymetallic nodule deposits in the CCZ will consist of a set of digital and hard copy maps and tables describing predicted ore grade and abundance and associated error estimates as well as complete documentation that describes testing procedures for the model and all algorithms used in producing the final model results.

The experience of exploration activities in national areas is of interest to the Authority in light of the similar deposits of similar mineral resources in the Area.

(g) prospecting means the search for deposits of polymetallic sulphides or cobalt crusts in the Area, including estimation of the composition, sizes and distributions of deposits of polymetallic sulphides or cobalt crusts and their economic values, without any exclusive rights

The depletion of a large mineral deposit can have serious detrimental effects both on the national economy and on regions dependent on mining.

The guide will also provide data and information on all known nodule deposits in the CCZ with a focus on the high resolution characterization of specific deposit sites.

Following the Secretary General's report to the tenth session of the Assembly on the work of the Authority, a number of positive developments have taken place with regard to the project to establish a geological model and prospectors guide of polymetallic nodule deposits in the Clarion Clipperton fracture zone (CCZ) in the Pacific Ocean.

Displacements were also caused by major development projects, such as large dams or mines.

It will be recalled that in 1997, Nautilus Minerals Ltd. was granted an exploration licence by the Government of Papua New Guinea to explore for and mine seafloor polymetallic sulphides deposits in its national waters.

So the Easter Bunny has put things in the ocean floor, and you have massive heavy metal deposits that we're making in this mountain range.

And eventually we got two large animals, and pig studies.

On the basis of small samples of ore and diamonds, the pipe was assessed as being sub economic with relatively low ore grades and low diamond valuations.

The process requires a huge amount of water, which is then pumped into massive toxic tailing ponds.

Such monitoring programmes will result in the establishment of rigorous databases for the protection and preservation of the marine environment associated with mineral deposits.

They'll want to know who does your hair, what you eat, drink, what sheets you sleep on.

Currently, there are only 8 mines that are in production in the country 4 diamond mines, 2 copper nickel mines, 1 gold mine, 1 soda ash mine and 1 coal mine.

(f) polymetallic sulphides means hydrothermally formed deposits of sulphide minerals which contain concentrations of metals including, inter alia, copper, lead, zinc, gold and silver

(d) exploration means searching for deposits of polymetallic sulphides or cobalt crusts in the Area with exclusive rights, the analysis of such deposits, the use and testing of recovery systems and equipment, processing facilities and transportation systems, and the carrying out of studies of the environmental, technical, economic, commercial and other appropriate factors that must be taken into account in exploitation

Aside from the traditional non living resources of the sea, such as oil and gas, it is estimated that the seabed contains close to 300 minerals, many of which may eventually prove worthy of exploration and exploitation for the benefit of mankind.

(b) cobalt crusts means hydroxide oxide deposits of cobalt rich iron manganese (ferromanganese) crust formed from direct precipitation of minerals from seawater onto hard substrates containing minor but significant concentrations of cobalt, titanium, nickel, platinum, molybdenum, tellurium, cerium, other metallic and rare earth elements

Wolframite occurs with cassiterite.

First, some types of activities do not exist in all Parties (e.g. rice cultivation or coal mining).

(a) Types of deposits, geographical location, the metal content of the items of commercial interest and any information on baseline environmental conditions, including biota

7. Issues related to the social and economic impacts of the mining sector, especially in developing countries and economies in transition.

That sand that Devlin brought in shows uranium ore.

Their fitness for creating pandemics we are unaware of, but we are ripe for zoonotic borne, emerging communicable diseases.

CHAPTER V PROTECTION OF COAL MINING AREAS

During overflights, the Panel was able to identify two D6 Caterpillar earth movers, a sizeable mechanical digger, at least 60 miners at work, pumps and a washing plant.

If prospector is a juridical person, identify prospector's

I'll take a Vichy water, sir. Vichy!

Well, the bed collapsed. It's a collapsible bed.

Article 38 To ensure safety in production, the system under which the directors of coal mine administrations and the managers of coal mines assume full responsibility shall be instituted in coal mining enterprises.

It is rich in mineral resources, natural mineral resources.
