Info

Environmental – Exploitation • MINING OPERATION: • Electric powered Remote Operated Miners use similar technology to those already operating in the AREA laying telecommunication cables etc. • Operate on volcanic ridges (not muddy abyssal plains so no plumes). • Rock Cutting heads designed to not make small fragments. • Positive suction pump draws in any fines produced to the pump system & to the surface.
Environmental – Exploitation • OTHER ELEMENTS: • Deleterious elements that might exist naturally in the ore such as lead and arsenic remain in the same stable mineralogy during mining. The mineral is not broken down from its stable constituent, the mass of ore is simply removed for further processing on land at a concentrator and then a smelter or similar.
