Environment

Minimizing environmental impact is the cornerstone of our project, aiming for an 80% reduction in ecological footprint compared to land-based mining. We focus on baseline data and assessment tools.

Exploration

Developing technology to efficiently locate and evaluate deep-sea mineral resources. Our methods enhance understanding of the ocean floor and its potential while maintaining strict safeguards.

Production

Designing closed-loop systems for eco-friendly mineral extraction. We aim to minimize energy consumption and integrate with existing subsea technologies.

Processing

Incorporating seabed minerals with existing processing operations. Developing technology to extract metals from sulfides. Our focus includes reducing waste and ensuring alternative uses for by-products.
