Pressure mounts on the International Seabed Authority to deliver deep-sea mining regulations that are still 'two to three years' away

Pressure mounts on the International Seabed Authority to deliver deep-sea mining regulations that are still 'two to three years' away

Delegates from around the world, including those on both sides of the deep-sea mining divide in the Pacific, have arrived in Jamaica for the 30th session of the International Seabed Authority Assembly and Council.
The gathering comes hot on the heels of the delivery of new research into the potential environmental impacts of mining the seabed, and a matter of months after US President Donald Trump signed off on an executive order designed to open up US and international waters to mining companies.
So now, with pressure mounting on the ISA, the hope is they will move closer to finalising regulations for deep-sea mining in international waters at last.
