seabed resources
Seabed resources are valuable materials found beneath the ocean floor, including minerals, oil, and gas. These resources are extracted for use in manufacturing, energy, and technology. The seabed contains metals like manganese, cobalt, and rare earth elements essential for electronics and green energy. Additionally, sediments and organisms offshore can provide biological and chemical resources. Extracting seabed resources requires specialized equipment and considerations for environmental impact. As land-based resources become limited, the oceans represent a significant potential source, but responsible management is crucial to protect marine ecosystems.
