"The Research Council of Norway has granted up to NOK 25 million to “MarMine”, a research project on marine mineral resources. The project is coordinated by the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (“NTNU”) and has a strong industrial basis and participation. Nordic Mining’s subsidiary Nordic Ocean Resources AS (“NORA”), a first-mover initiative related to seabed mineral exploration in Norway, will be actively participating in the project."
Exploration cruise 2016:
As part of the “MarMine”, a comprehensive exploration cruise is planned on the Norwegian continental shelf in the summer of 2016. The cruise will explore for sulfide deposits within selected areas on the MAR. The work will involve sampling using a remotely operated underwater vehicle. Analysis and assessments will be done related to technical and environmental aspects of marine mineral operations.
