Interior mulls first offshore mineral lease in 30 years
The Interior Department on Tuesday said it's begun the process of evaluating a possible offshore mineral lease sale in U.S. waters off American Samoa, the first such auction of its kind in more than three decades. In doing so, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum said the agency was advancing President Donald Trump's vision for boosting domestic production and deep-sea mining and paving a path for possible future extraction of critical minerals from the outer continental shelf.
