UNCLOS, Part XIII, Article 240 (a)
maintenance of installations, pipelines and other devices related
to such activities; (b) the protection and conservation of the
natural resources of the Area and the prevention of damage to
the flora and fauna of the marine environment.
In this case, even before the prospecting and exploration
took place, STI managed to get an exploration contract with the
International Seabed Authority. This is a manifestation that STI
was within the regulations and rules enshrined in the UNCLOS
for the exploration of polytechnic nodules and marine scientific
research. The contract is proof of the legality of STI’s actions.
