Chapter 10: Antarctica | Solutions for Goyal Brothers …
Antarctica is world's southernmost continent, containing the geographic South Pole. It is situated in the Antarctic region of the Southern Hemisphere, almost entirely south of the Antarctic Circle and is surrounded by the Southern Ocean. Its area is approximately 14,200,000 sq. km. It is covered by Permafrost (permanently frozen ground).

The threat to Antarctica from mining and exploiting oil and gas
When the original Antarctic Treaty was signed in 1959, the exploitation of resources was not discussed at all for fear of jeopardizing the Treaty. In the 1980's the issues were raised again, and led eventually to the Protocol on Environmental Protection to the Antarctic Treaty (an addition to the treaty), it is also known as t…
Solution mining
Solution mining entails the injection of brine solutions into underground potash-bearing or other salt seams. The solution dissolves soluble potash-bearing minerals from the seam, and the pregnant potash-bearing solution is then recovered to the surface for processing. Solution mining techniques, focused on caverns in halite, are discussed in ...
Human Impacts on Antarctica and Threats to the …
The Antarctic Treaty bans all mining and mineral exploitation indefinitely, though this comes up for review in 2048 (in other words, it isn't really banned indefinitely at all). 7 - Direct impacts associated with the development of infrastructure for …

When can we go mining in Antarctica?
We often hear that mining has been banned in Antarctica for 50 years. This is not true. The Protocol's prohibition on minerals resource activities is not limited in time. Further, there are strict rules for modifying the mining prohibition. Simply put, it cannot be modified before the passage of 50 years with anything less than consensus of ...
