We have invested heavily in the exploration of minerals in the deep seabed.

Non living marine resources include beach and nearshore minerals, deep sea minerals, offshore oil and gas, and chemicals and freshwater from the sea. Deep sea minerals

Mr. Vama opposes the mine on environmental grounds, in particular the discharge of waste into the ocean.

And the metals, we typically get from ore that we mine in ever widening mines and ever deepening mines around the world.

The library manages the Authority's specialized collection of reference and research materials focusing on matters relating to the law of the sea and deep seabed mining.

Upon the completion of this phase, the Authority will be provided with recommendations regarding the recovery of the deep abyssal plain communities from disturbances by a test mining system.

301. All three types of deep seabed minerals can be found within or beyond national jurisdiction.

Mining and quarrying

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.

This phase of the Kaplan Project addresses its second objective, which is to investigate and study disturbance and recolonization processes at the sea floor following mining track creation and plume resedimentation in the abyssal nodule provinces.

OTHER (MINING, ETC.)

It's not even mining.

In 2002, the sector has continued to show a declining trend both for diamond production as well as mining and quarrying.

Mining equipment imports

In 1997, the Division also assisted the Authority by informing the World Trade Organization (WTO) about the consistency of the trade related provisions of the deep seabed mining regime, as established by Part XI of the Convention and the 1994 Implementing Agreement, with the provisions of the WTO and about the convergence of the dispute settlement procedures in trade related matters under the deep seabed mining regime with those of WTO.5

In consequence, people are moving back into mining areas in numbers, miners are digging at will with no fear of interference from the authorities, and the level of mining activity has increased significantly over the past few months.

The initial 3 million funding by Placer Dome was utilized in applying geophysical methods to locate deposits of sulphides at depths of 1,800 metres and to initiate the engineering for trial mining.

West Africa Mining Corporation agreement

The Government continued to implement measures to reassert its control over diamond mining through the issuance of more mining licences.

45. In November 1996, the Government placed a 12 page advertisement in the industry leading Mining Journal intended to promote investment in the mining sector.

On this basis, each sovereign Caspian State develops the mineral resources in its own national sector.

The International Seabed Authority can and is supposed to regulate mining activities in the Area in such a way that any negative effects on the marine environment are minimized or avoided.

Once the seabed mining code is approved by the Authority, the seven pioneer investors would be granted exploration contracts.

The oil, gas and mining companies constituting the extractive industry have a significant impact on the enjoyment of human rights.

The Madrid Protocol prohibits mining.

We need to see deep trenches, the undersea mountains, and understand life in the deep sea.

The coal mining enterprise that has obtained approval for establishment shall, by virtue of the document of approval, be issued the mining license by the department in charge of geology and mineral resources.

24. Takes note of the Workshop for the establishment of environmental baselines at deep seafloor cobalt rich crusts and deep seabed polymetallic sulphide mine sites in the Area for the purpose of evaluating the likely effects of exploration and exploitation on the marine environment, held in Kingston from 6 to 10 September 2004

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

The Voluntary Principles could also be directed to private security companies themselves, rather than at only the extractive sector companies.

Such innovations include on ship analysis of geophysical and geological survey data, recently carried out for the first time for diamond concessions offshore South Africa, and making provisional interpretation of seabed sediment characteristics relevant for diamonds and mineral sands mining from repeated in situ measurements obtained through cone penetrometer tests (CPT).

Second, and more difficult, the oil sheikhs and other producers of fossil fuels must be talked into postponing their extraction plans or, better yet, not to extract some of their resources at all. The best policy against global warming is to keep the CO2 imbedded in fossil resources deep underground.
