Summary
Deep-sea mining robot Eureka, built by Impossible Metals, picked about 450 grams of polymetallic nodules from the Pacific seabed at more than 4,000 meters, the company said Nov. 9. The dive was research, not production, and no independent monitoring is described, so habitat claims remain unproven ahead of the Nov. 19 American Samoa lease sale.
