I have often wondered if they monitor scientific research like this specifically to find new places to start extracting resources.

[–] KilgoreTrout@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

In this case it was the other way round. They conducted the research because of the mining proposals.

I really hope there’s some way to stop it. They don’t have the rights yet so maybe this discovery will sway the decision.

Isn't this the plot of the first Cloverfield movie?

well, are they discovered or undiscovered? I guess if they know it is 5000 species, they must have discovered them . . . yep: https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-65722878
