Deep Seabed Mining Law

Deep Seabed Mining Law refers to international regulations governing the exploration and extraction of mineral resources from the ocean floor beyond national waters. Established primarily under the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), it aims to balance the economic interests of countries and companies while protecting the marine environment. These laws promote sustainable practices, ensure that benefits are shared globally, and prevent conflicts over resource ownership, recognizing the ocean as a shared heritage that belongs to all humanity.
