Pacific: Potentially damaging impacts of seabed mining on Pacific Island communities highlighted in new report

A new report by Caritas Oceania, Turning the Tide, highlights the potential negative impacts of seabed mining on Pacific Island communities, including damage to the shoreline, food sources and livelihoods of local people. The report also cites the absence of free, prior and informed consent, plus lack of consideration of the precautionary principle as problematic.

Four mining companies are named in the report: Nautilus Minerals, Ocean Minerals, GSR (part of Deme Group) and Trans-Tasman Resources. Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited these companies to respond to the concerns raised in the Caritas report. Three companies responded and one did not (Trans-Tasman Resources) - these responses are linked below. The original Caritas report is also linked below.
