Transitioning to clean energy requires hundreds of millions of tons of metals—particularly nickel, copper, cobalt, and manganese—for the batteries needed to store this energy. This is where DeepGreen comes in. Land mining today requires digging deeper and wider for lower-quality ores, devastating biodiverse ecosystems in the process. We’ve found a better way: polymetallic nodules on the seafloor in the Clarion Clipperton Zone, four kilometers deep, which contain rich concentrations of these base metals. As stewards of these rocks, we’ve baselined the environment, from seafloor to surface, to study the impacts of collecting them. Joining forces with leading engineers, scientists, and architects, we now have the capability to recover these remarkable rocks with the lightest planetary impact.
