Visualizing Deep-sea Mining
This animation demonstrates how a collector vehicle launched from a ship during deep-sea mining would travel 15,000 feet below sea level to collect polymetallic nodules containing essential minerals. Narrated by MIT Professor Thomas Peacock.

The race to mine the bottom of the ocean

There are metallic deposits scattered throughout our ocean floors — among hydrothermal vents, under the crust of seamounts, and scattered along sea plains in the form of rocks. As it happens, in our search for climate solutions, these metals have become more critical than ever to help us transition away from fossil fuels. We need them for everything like electric car batteries, copper wiring for electrification and wind turbines. Our land-based deposits have met our needs so far, but it’s unclear whether they will continue to, or whether we’ll want to kee...

Homemade ROV Submarine In Flooded Underground Mine
I sent my homemade ROV down a flooded abandoned mine to see what's in there!
The ROV is made out of PVC with a good amount of zipties, duct tape, hot glue, pool noodles, and other junk. It currently features a Gopro mount and a fishing camera for navigation. It's driven from the surface using a DIY control panel and powered by a 12v battery running over ethernet cable. I've previously used this device to check out some flooded caves in Minnesota.
Please note that mine exploring and especially mine diving is dangerous to do in person! I'm SCUBA certified but not cave diving certified, so I'd never do this myself! That's why we sent the robot to check it out instead.

MEDUSA Is U.S. Navy’s Secret Minelaying Submarine
The U.S. Navy wants offensive mine warfare capability, and it wants it fast. That’s the message from a new project called MEDUSA contained in the Navy’s latest budget release.
Mines have long been a powerful force in naval warfare; during World War II they sank more ships than aircraft or gunfire. In the modern era they are still effective, not just as weapons but for shaping an adversary’s actions. During the 1991 Gulf War, General Stanley McChrystal abandoned plans for a mass amphibious assault because the risk of sea mines was too great — even though allied minesweepers had been over the waters. (Two U.S. warships were damaged by mines during the conflict anyway).
David Strachan, Senior Analyst of Strikepod Systems, notes that modern mines can be activated or deactivated at will remot...

There are metallic deposits scattered throughout our ocean floors — among hydrothermal vents, under the crust of seamounts, and scattered along sea plains in the form of rocks. As it happens, in our search for climate solutions, these metals have become more critical than ever to help us transition away from fossil fuels. We need them for everything like electric car batteries, copper wiring for electrification and wind turbines. Our land-based deposits have met our needs so far, but it’s unclear whether they will continue to, or whether we’ll want to keep destroying the environment to do so.
This video explains the history and the debate over mining metals in the deep sea and why one Canadian company, The Metals Company, is leading the rush there. There are huge environmental implications for digging up seafloor ecosystems as well as ethical ones: Metal-rich zones like the Clarion-Clipperton Zone lie in international waters that technically belong to everyone. A United Nations body located in Kingston, Jamaica, the International Seabed Authority, is faced with an urgent dilemma over how to regulate mining, whether the environmental harm is worth the benefits to solving our climate crisis, and how to fairly share the profits from this shared resource.
Correction: at 7:45, the company rang the opening bell at Nasdaq not New York Stock Exchange.
You can dig into the exploration contracts issued by the International Seabed Authority here:
https://www.isa.org.jm/exploration-contracts/
The New York Times has done some important investigative work on deep sea mining:

This study provides a thorough overview of some of the ecosystems with metallic deposits:

I sent my homemade ROV down a flooded abandoned mine to see what's in there!
The ROV is made out of PVC with a good amount of zipties, duct tape, hot glue, pool noodles, and other junk. It currently features a Gopro mount and a fishing camera for navigation. It's driven from the surface using a DIY control panel and powered by a 12v battery running over ethernet cable. I've previously used this device to check out some flooded caves in Minnesota.
Please note that mine exploring and especially mine diving is dangerous to do in person! I'm SCUBA certified but not cave diving certified, so I'd never do this myself! That's why we sent the robot to check it out instead.

MEDUSA Is U.S. Navy’s Secret Minelaying Submarine

The U.S. Navy wants offensive mine warfare capability, and it wants it fast. That’s the message from a new project called MEDUSA contained in the Navy’s latest budget release.
Mines have long been a powerful force in naval warfare; during World War II they sank more ships than aircraft or gunfire. In the modern era they are still effective, not just as weapons but for shaping an adversary’s actions. During the 1991 Gulf War, General Stanley McChrystal abandoned plans for a mass amphibious assault because the risk of sea mines was too great — even though allied minesweepers had been over the waters. (Two U.S. warships were damaged by mines during the conflict anyway).
David Strachan, Senior Analyst of Strikepod Systems, notes that modern mines can be activated or deactivated at will remotely, so they can be emplaced in peacetime, citing The Commander’s Handbook on the Law of Naval Operations
Strachan recently published a paper detailing the U.S. Navy’s offensive mining strategy. The problem is China, with an offensive mining force being an effective way to keep Chinese forces and in particular submarines bottled up in harbor and blunt their attacking edge. Strachan’s research shows that development of the Orca XLUUV, the U.S. Navy's new super-sized unmanned submarine, is driven primarily by a need to provide that mining capability.
Underwater minelaying is required because while the U.S. can drop QuickStrike mines from the air, this is highly visible and opponents may move to locate and neutralize the mines. Underwater vehicles can lay entire minefields covertly. The problem is that Orca and similar developments will not be ready for some time
“I would say that we are still several years away from platforms like Orca and Snakehead providing a reliable means for clandestine mine warfare,” Strachan told me. “Which is why the Navy, I believe, is hedging its bet in the near term."
Hence MEDUSA.
MEDUSA, short for ‘Mining Expendable Delivery Unmanned Submarine Asset,’ is described in the Navy's new R&D budget as “a medium class UUV [Unmanned Underwater Vehicle] capable of offensive mining capabilities deployed from a submarine. It may potentially carry other advanced payloads in the future to meet additional mission needs. MEDUSA features torpedo tube launch capability, long range, high payload placement accuracy, and can handle heavy payloads.”
Virtually no other details are available; all we know is that it is an unmanned vehicle, fired from a torpedo tube, which travels to the target area where it lays mines — it can carry two, and place them in different areas. In some ways it is a more sophisticated version of the old Submarine Launched Mobile Mine, which worked in a similar way. The difference is that the Clandestine Delivered Mines, or CDMs, dropped by MEDUSA are networked and remote controlled. Not only can the minefield be turned on or off at will, but it may even be possible to change the target set, for example, setting the mines to attack submarine or surface targets only.
