A common concern about nodule collection is that it could impact the ocean's ability to sequester carbon. In reality, only a tiny fraction of oceanic carbon is stored in abyssal sediments, and peer-reviewed research shows operations would have a "trivial" impact on seafloor microbes and their capacity to sequester carbon. While some sediment is temporarily disturbed, there is no known pathway for it to rise back to the surface four kilometres above.

A new paper in Global Policy finds the amplification of speculative claims regarding deep-sea mining through NGO advocacy campaigns and media narratives have undermined evidence-based dialogue, and hindered informed decision making.

“Safeguarding the role of science in global deep-sea mining governance demands humility from researchers, responsibility from publishers, discernment from policymakers, and a collective commitment to resisting the temptation to let advocacy override evidence.”

A common concern about nodule collection is that it could disrupt marine carbon sinks. But while some draw comparisons with trawling, deep-sea nodule collection will take place in far deeper waters, and mobilize carbon-poor sediments which remain within meters of the seafloor and do not rise to the surface four kilometres above.

The Coandă nozzles installed on our Allseas-designed collector use curved flow dynamics to create lift, coaxing nodules into the collector without digging or dredging. The result: a dramatic reduction in sediment intake and seafloor impact. $TMC

Carbon Sequestration - What does the data tell us?
