Trump is progressing with the controversial deep sea mine star-news.press/wp

Donald Trump signed the controversial executive order aimed at excavation of deep sea mining in the United States and in international waters.
Order of Thursday is the most favorable by the US presidents to try to increase American access to minerals used by aviation, green technology and health sectors.
The deep sea contains billions of rocks in the form of potatoes, named polyminological nodes, which are rich in critical minerals like cobalt and rare country.
Many other countries and environmental groups oppose the mining of deep sea in international waters without further research.
The newest American executive order It was issued “to establish the United States as a global leader in a responsible sea-based mineral survey,” read.
The move seems to be circumvent the long-term circle of UN negotiations for mining in international waters.
“The US authorization … violates international law and harms the international interests of the international community,” said the spokesman of the Chinese Foreign Ministry of Guo Jiakun on Friday.
China dominates the production of rare countries and critical metals such as cobalt and lithium.
Trump was frustrated with this relative weakness of the US positionAnalysts say.
“We want now to reach this resource in this resource in the ocean, in the ocean floor,” said American official on Thursday.
In order to achieve this, the Order says that the US will speed up the process of issuing a reserve permit and recovery permits and in their waters and in “areas outside national jurisdiction.”
Administration estimates that the marine modance mining could increase GDP countries for $ 300 billion (225 billion) for 10 years and create 100,000 jobs
The EU, the United Kingdom and others support the moratorium in practice until further scientific research.
Eco and scientists are concerned that undiscovered species that live in a deep sea can hurt the process.
“Deep-marine mining is a deep dangerous effort to our ocean,” Jeff Watters of Ocean Canned, American Ecological Groups.
“Damage caused by the deep sea is not limited to the ocean floor: will affect the entire water column, top to the bottom and everyone and everything rely on it,” he added to the statement published on Friday.
It is not clear how fast the moronic mining could begin, but one mining company, the company Metals (TMC), has already applied for licenses in international waters.
TMC Executive Director Gerard Barron said previously said that he hopes to begin to rarify by the end of the year.
With others in the mining industry, he disputes the gathered environmental requirements and claim that the abess zone is – 3,000 mil. Up to 6,000 m below sea level – there are very low concentrations of life.
“Here is Zero Flora. And if we measure the amount of fauna (animal life), in the form of biomass, there are about 10 g per square meter. It is compared to more than 30 kilos of biomass in which the world is more extraction nickel,” previously told BBC.
