Abstract A large number of nodule minerals exist in the deep sea. Based on the factors of difficulty in shooting, high economic cost and high accuracy of resource assessment, large-scale planned commercial mining has not yet been conducted. Only experimental mining has been carried out in areas with high mineral density and obvious benefits after mineral resource assessment. As an efficient method for deep-sea mineral resource assessment, the deep towing system is equipped with a visual system for mineral resource analysis using collected images and videos, which has become a key component of resource assessment. Therefore,… More >
