(Nasdaq: TMC) (\u201cTMC\u201d or the \u201cCompany\u201d), a leading developer of the world\u2019s largest resource of critical metals essential to energy, defense, manufacturing and infrastructure, today announced that its subsidiaries, Nauru Ocean Resources Inc. (NORI) and Tonga Offshore Mining Ltd. (TOML), have submitted comprehensive data from almost a decade of deep-sea exploration to DeepData, an open database of contractor data managed by the International Seabed Authority (ISA).<\/p>\n<p>The submission\u2014spanning 2013-2022 and comprising an unparalleled collection of biological and geochemical samples from across the eastern Clarion Clipperton Zone (CCZ)\u2014builds on a decade of research by NORI and TOML to characterize the polymetallic nodule resource and surrounding marine environment, from the ocean surface through the water column to abyssal sediments more than 4,000 meters deep. The data will be made publicly available through open repositories including DeepData and UNESCO\u2019s Ocean Biodiversity Information System (OBIS) as part of the Company\u2019s commitment to advancing scientific understanding of the deep ocean. With this submission, TMC\u2019s subsidiaries have contributed roughly one-third of all CCZ data in DeepData. The data will also be published to the OBIS-ISA node, where TMC subsidiary data already account for 54% of all biological records\u2014a share expected to increase significantly following publication of this batch. TMC\u2019s dataset is generating significant interest among researchers, with the full OBIS dataset downloaded almost ten thousand times to date and individual taxa downloads totaling more than half a billion.<\/p>\n<p>TMC Environmental Manager, Dr. Michael Clarke, commented: \u201cAfter more than a decade of research, 27 expeditions, rigorously monitored pilot mining tests, tens of thousands of biological records, and hundreds of thousands of seafloor images, we\u2019ve built one of the most comprehensive deep-sea environmental datasets ever assembled. Backed by over $250 million in investment, our findings don\u2019t stand in isolation\u2014they corroborate decades of prior research, including NOAA\u2019s DOMES program,\u201d he said, referring to the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration\u2019s Deep Ocean Mining Environmental Study program conducted in the 1970s.<\/p>\n<p>With the extensive Environmental Impact Assessment now complete, the Company has begun sharing key takeaways from this comprehensive body of work through a series of videos documenting how its data addresses environmental concerns and how innovation has reduced the impact footprint of its collection system compared to legacy technology.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Environmental Concerns \u2013 What Does The Data Tell Us?<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/f9Hi1ks5EyE?si=e9JMinRRE-KRMPjy\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Benthic plumes<\/a>\n        <\/li>\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Fb9qAytaT-M?si=B8vXl8MPnDxkN1u5\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Midwater plumes<\/a>\n        <\/li>\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/8f8rMrAqjcg?si=RkoBzwgBszdO8qIC\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Biodiversity<\/a>\n        <\/li>\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/NyJSUqFP4n4?si=x_aQHYvoUEkkBu-L\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Carbon sequestration<\/a>\n        <\/li>\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/lRVYTNe6gys?si=E76ubnffbr3pc3wC\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Noise and light<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\n        <strong>Innovation At Depth <\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Kt4q85BY4vE?si=MNs383HG6oxOkrBS\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Make it float<\/a>\n        <\/li>\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/sb1dXUzriIw?si=-iaYmx42mz8r-vC_\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Collect nodules, not mud: The Coanda effect<\/a>\n        <\/li>\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/sb1dXUzriIw?si=-iaYmx42mz8r-vC_\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Smarter separation at the source<\/a>\n        <\/li>\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/_6wuM7b4BQU?si=7qmjgSDcM08rYHCN\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Midwater release: Less up, less down<\/a>\n        <\/li>\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/VEN5c2mligM?si=UtwU2RkfrkbB3dQf\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Calming the current<\/a>\n        <\/li>\n<li>\n          <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/I9QQYgFJx2I?si=rG8GWkvJr5Wj_7Q4\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Go with the flow: Mine planning to reduce impact<\/a><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Data from NORI and TOML\u2019s offshore campaigns have supported <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=HhmCGxcVJeKSchtDo6sV07PYk1XSVejAyn6B0ixFTjt8LuV__kY3FacSZ39K9FWqYe2jVpLCM5jriKZNPKZxwXhS5GCdtJk278c55e5zqtc=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">37 peer-reviewed publications<\/a> by independent scientists from leading marine research institutions, all of whom retain full freedom to publish.

With more than a petabyte of data collected, the Company expects this body of work to expand significantly in the coming years. To date, nearly 200,000 scientific papers have been published on polymetallic nodules globally, including more than 50,000 focused on the eastern CCZ.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Clarke added: \u201cActivists often repeat the refrain that \u2018we don\u2019t know enough\u2019\u2014but that narrative doesn\u2019t hold up against the evidence. The Environmental Impact Assessments produced for the CCZ are, in aggregate, the most extensive ever conducted for any mining project anywhere in the world. That record demands recognition \u2014 and it demands that the bar for \u2018enough\u2019 be set not by the absence of all uncertainty, but by the presence of sufficient knowledge to manage risk responsibly, with adaptive mechanisms firmly in place. As with any resource project, the science is not perfect, and we will continue to learn and adapt after production begins. But it is, by any reasonable measure, more than sufficient to begin monitored commercial operations. The conclusion has been consistent for more than 50 years: with the right safeguards and monitoring, the environmental impacts of nodule collection can be effectively managed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In January, TMC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=c77JZUEqYDmAyQIzc_NdAfGW195-1DkmAF6dbOCu_rGqfdOY-r9mk1jNssNaZiP-aqW85bIivuFhlMfxK8ov6QVhyjOECKDif_11fJ0CGN5DM76h--G3QFchuPtpP_ISZYDtXxSZkZVp-69ki6BMzQVPMflXxwmgnftRvvfqGQJP6WMSKaKg7R6c3mDVQPqY0gzMdTigCFdKDcaP5HZzPpGo04KVTXsGRgI0rB1lWkM=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">announced<\/a> that it had submitted the first ever consolidated application under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=8VrPY45Y9vwGnZpvSGQa36D6NHvggJLVYIFk_chU3_tqAqt2M0h80xv8xkl4hKkRfyBXJZPTk7-RJCLcu8i_EfVs7TlzrRpp0tunxQU_JnaCJyvSMbKY3rQ7SCkOVnenPze2urpZsmsQxJDWdYl5jyl6qok5NCr1E2TA8Pzoj0iaJX9ouna_CroZTxOuVceT5Vbj8medR3CCdmUsgh_ll2k5QuckEDLpxO1dNuiUQUTZNTqdyt-n9QGDCL8yx4ezid553cU0EuA34vbZDYfuIA==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">NOAA\u2019s modernized regulatory framework<\/a>, a permitting pathway that is anticipated to reduce permitting timelines and is available to applicants with sufficient environmental and technical knowledge.
