Abstract
Based on quantitative indicators of accumulations of the main types of solid minerals of the World Ocean: iron-manganese nodules, cobalt-rich manganese crusts and deep-sea polymetallic sulfides, an assessment of the ore potential was carried out both on the scale of the entire ocean and within the application areas of the Russian Federation. A price assessment of all types of ocean ores has been carried out, while it is shown that it is only a rank guideline indicating their exceptional importance for global mineral resource security.
