Applications for provisional licenses for deep-sea mining are now being accepted by a U.N. agency. The agency is still debating whether to open the depths of the ocean to mining.
"We have a lot of work ahead of us," said Juan José González, the authority’s council president.
The authority has issued more than 30 exploration licenses but no provisional licenses — so far.
