Summary: The Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) opposes the issuance of deep-sea mining exploration licenses to American Metal Resources, LLC and SeaX, Inc. in the Clarion Clipperton Zone. They argue that there is insufficient scientific knowledge to evaluate the potential environmental impacts and urge NOAA to halt approvals in favor of a moratorium or precautionary pause.
