Profile

A sponsored-state contractor running the first industrial-scale nodule harvester over abyssal plains that no human had ever surveyed before the collector tracks arrived. The seabed they grind to slurry is the slowest-healing habitat on Earth — what is lost is lost for geological time. Disrupt-tier because the harm is irreversible and ongoing, yet the consortium operates under a thin veneer of legal sponsorship we intend to strip away.

Documented Crimes

• Polymetallic-nodule extraction across an unbroken abyssal plain, erasing habitat that took millions of years to form
• Sediment plumes smothering benthic communities hundreds of kilometres beyond the licence block
• Operating before the seabed-mining code's environmental thresholds were finalised
• Destruction of unsurveyed chemosynthetic vent fields without baseline study
