MINDeSEA is working hard in education and research activities on seafloor mineral deposits in European seas. Recently, Egidio Marino has defended his PhD thesis “Cobalt-rich ferromanganese crusts from southwest Canary Island seamounts: Mineralogy and geochemistry of strategic and critical elements”.
Congratulations on getting your PhD/Doctorate degree with the maximum calcification, Egidio.
