Autonomous Underwater Explorer for Flooded Mines (UNEXMIN)
Start date: Feb 1, 2016, End date: Oct 31, 2019,
This project will develop a novel robotic system for the autonomous exploration and mapping of Europe’s flooded mines. The Robotic Explorer (UX-1) will use non-invasive methods for autonomous 3D mine mapping for gathering valuable geological and mineralogical information. This will open new exploration scenarios so that strategic decisions on the re-opening of Europe’s abandoned mines could be sup ...

Managing Impacts of Deep-seA reSource exploitation (MIDAS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,
The MIDAS project addresses fundamental environmental issues relating to the exploitation of deep-sea mineral and energy resources; specifically polymetallic sulphides, manganese nodules, cobalt-rich ferromanganese crusts, methane hydrates and the potential mining of rare earth elements. These new industries will have significant impacts on deep-sea ecosystems, in some cases extending over hundre ...
