Indonesia holds the world’s largest nickel reserves and has rapidly expanded production, which a new study says has grown roughly tenfold over the past decade.
The International Seabed Authority (ISA), the UN-associated organisation that oversees deep-sea mining activities in international waters, held a council meeting from 13 to 24 July in Kingston, Jamaica.
In April, the Trump administration released its proposed fiscal year 2027 budget for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Global efforts to regulate deep-sea mining face delays – as unresolved rules and unilateral moves heighten uncertainty over the industry’s future.
