The Kerguelen Plateau is a shelf of continental origin situated in the antarctic region.
Will this plateau be mined for ressources before Jan 1st 2030?
this plateau: any zone clearly part of this plateau
mined: any ressource collection operation, under the water surface, including polymetallic nodule mining, or straight up underwater mining of the plateau. For minerals, metals, lithium, oil or generally any ressources generally associated with mining (not alguae or non-geological entities). Not only exploratory study, but industrial exploitation (i.e. an enterprise destined to make profit, not necessarily large)
In case of ambiguity, I reserve the right to discuss the resolution in the comments and possibly resolve N/A.
