India's National Institute of Ocean Technology (NIOT) will test indigenously built deepsea mining equipment in April at a never before attempted depth of 1,100. The 15t crawler has already been tested at 500m and will eventually be used at depths up to 6,000m. It may take up to two weeks for the crawler to touch 1,100m into the deep, according to the Times of India. The test will be conducted ...

NIOZ expert on deepsea mining, Henko de Stigter: 'It was a good opportunity to see a mining vehicle in action in a marine environment from very nearby. The seabed conditions at the test site, with soft, muddy sediment and weak bottom currents, were somewhat comparable to those we find in the deepsea.' Plumes threaten recolonization of fauna after mining. The field trials .

Deepsea mining is likely to result in biodiversity loss, and the significance of this to ecosystem function is not known. "Out of kind" biodiversity offsets substituting one ecosystem type (, coral reefs) for another (, abyssal nodule fields) have been proposed to compensate for such loss. Here we consider a goal of no net loss (NNL) of biodiversity and explore the challenges of ...
