Recently, a project initiated by the China Ocean Association, which is affiliated with the Ministry of Natural Resources, has been approved. “ Development and Integration of a Polymetallic Nodule Mining System for Seafloor Trials: Shallow-Water Testing “” Polymetallic nodule mining system 500 Maritime testing in the U.S. ” The project has been successfully approved by experts. This marks the first time that our country has successfully carried out... 500 The trial of the meter-depth seabed polymetallic nodule mining system marks a significant milestone: China’s research and development of deep-sea mining systems has now fully transitioned from land-based testing to offshore trials, paving the way for China’s... “ Deep-Sea Polymetallic Nodule Mining Test Project 1000 The meter-level integrated linkage test has laid the foundation.

　　Research on the topic “ Kunlong 500” The seabed mining vehicle has achieved breakthroughs in several key technologies, including driving on soft seabed substrates, hydraulic collection of seabed minerals, and integrated navigation and positioning systems for seabed operations. It has successfully completed experimental tasks such as autonomous path planning for seabed navigation and adaptive ore collection tailored to seabed topography, and it possesses independent intellectual property rights.

　　It is reported that this sea trial lasted for 49 Heaven. “ Kunlong 500” The seabed mining vehicles have all been launched into the water. 11 Next, maximum operating water depth 514 Meter, polymetallic nodule collection capability 10 ton / Hours, maximum distance per single trip 2881 Meter, underwater positioning accuracy 0.72 Mi has achieved seabed sampling operations along a predetermined path in autonomous driving mode.
