This comprehensive book contains contributions from specialists who
provide a complete status update along with outstanding issues
encompassing different topics related to deep-sea mining. Interest
in exploration and exploitation of deep-sea minerals is seeing a
revival due to diminishing grades and increasing costs of
processing of terrestrial minerals as well as availability of
several strategic metals in seabed mineral resources; it therefore
becomes imperative to take stock of various issues related to
deep-sea mining. The authors are experienced scientists and
engineers from around the globe developing advanced technologies
for mining and metallurgical extraction as well as performing deep
sea exploration for several decades. They invite readers to learn
about the resource potential of different deep-sea minerals, design
considerations and development of mining systems, and the potential
environmental impacts of mining in international waters.
