Norwegian Deep Sea Mining: What will it look like?

On January 9, 2024, the Norwegian Parliament, with an overwhelming majority, approved the exploration of deep-sea mining on a section of the Norwegian continental shelf. In a discussion with Nancy Bazilchuk on the NTNU podcast "63 Degrees North," Egil Tjåland explores various aspects of the process. He emphasizes why mining activities on the Norwegian seabed will not commence for many years-highlighting the importance of knowledge, environmental considerations, and political oversight in the decision-making process.
