Abbas Ali Khan and Bosa Kosoric write on how deep sea mining was once again thrust into the spotlight in late April 2025. As deep sea mining continues to be a contentious topic globally, the move has been hotly debated and raises important questions about the laws governing deep sea mining beyond national borders. It also highlights fast developing issues that deep sea miners, investors, and other stakeholders need to consider.

In their column, Abbas and Bosa look at what the international position is on deep sea mining, Canada's stance on the issue, recent developments and what's next.
