Ten-day Armada 8605 campaign adds high-resolution photographic, sonar, and environmental data to Moana Minerals' EL3 environmental baseline program

Three HUGIN autonomous underwater vehicles ("AUVs") - deployed from Ocean Infinity's Armada 8605 - mapped and photographed the seafloor at a depth of more than 5,000 meters.
Survey covered approximately 1,000 km² within Exploration License 3 ("EL3"), generating more than 600,000 seafloor photographs plus synthetic aperture sonar imagery and environmental sensor data in the Cook Islands exclusive economic zone.
The campaign complements the broader MV Anuanua Moana baseline program with higher-resolution coverage of a smaller area.

NOAA advances American Ocean Minerals' seabed mining application

Tue, 07 Jul 2026 08:31:02 -0400

The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has determined that American Ocean Minerals Corporation's (AOMC) consolidated application for seabed mineral exploration and commercial recovery is in substantial compliance with requirements under the Deep Seabed Hard Mineral Resources Act (DSHMRA), allowing formal environmental, public, and regulatory review to proceed.

The application, filed by AOMC's wholly owned subsidiary AOM Area-1 LLC, covers approximately 147,054 km² across five non-contiguous subareas in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone (CCZ) in the Pacific Ocean. The area contains polymetallic nodules with deposits of manganese, nickel, copper, and cobalt.

AOMC submitted the application under NOAA's consolidated permitting process, established following Executive Order
