The Solwara 1 Project is located at 1600 metres water depth in the Bismarck Sea, New Ireland Province. [22] It will be the world's first deep sea mining project, with first production expected in 2013. [22] [23] The resource is high grade copper-gold resource and the world's first Seafloor Massive Sulphide (SMS) resource. [22]
China has many different types of mineral resources and has global significant reserves of many of them. [2] They are frequently in the global top 10 countries for mineral reserves or production. [46] [2] They produce more than 90% of the global rare earth element ore. [47]
Seabed mineral resources such as manganese nodules, cobalt-rich crust and submarine hydrothermal deposits are located at depths over 1,000 m (3,300 ft). [4] Most of these deep sea resources are unexplored at the seabed. Much of the seabed has a depth of 3,000 m (9,800 ft) to 6,000 m (20,000 ft).
This list of mines in Indonesia is subsidiary to the list of mines article and lists working, defunct and future mines in the country and is organised by the primary mineral output. For practical purposes stone, marble and other quarries may be included in this list.
