Abstract:

In order to define the reasonable and preferable mine area for the application of oceanic Co-rich crust mine,after the modal of mining proposed by the International Seabed Authority(ISBA),based on the public dredge hauling surveying data of Co-rich crust on Govorov Guyot and the posterior probability chart of crust potential resources from the Weights-of-Evidence-Modeling ,considering the features of the regional Co-rich crust distribution of Pacific seamounts,the prospective area of Govorov Guyot crust resources firstly and then seven clusters (a total of 100 cobalt-crust ore blocks) were delineated by man-machine interactive method for delineating mining areas based on meeting regulation requirements of ISBA.The amount of wet crust resources of Govorov Guyot is calculated to be 69 487.6×104 t according to water depth. 100 crust blocks are mainly distributed on the slope,and their amount of wet and dry crust resources are calculated to be 14 092×104 t and 9 789.35×104 t respectively, including 1 961.3×104 t manganese,10.17×104 t copper, 54.06×104 t cobalt, 34.87×104 t nickle. These figures show that the scale of Govorov Guyot is very large, and its Co-rich crust resource prospect is valuable for further survey and exploitation.

Key words: Co-rich crusts, resources amount, delineating method of cobalt crust resources, marine geology, Magellan seamounts
