Abstract
Marine mineral resources are classified into submarine and seawater mineral resources. In seawater, huge amounts of useful minerals, such as uranium, lithium, magnesium, aluminum, zinc, iron, silver, copper, vanadium, nickel, titanium and cobalt are present. If the rare metals recovery technology from seawater is developed, the commercialization of the precess will be possible. For the 21st century, countries rich in resoures tend to weaponize the resources, according to the depletion of reserves and quality degradation of metal resources in the land. Therefore, Korea that relies on imports for most of the metal resources, should focus on the research and development of the rare metals recovery technology from seawater by using the geographical characteristics of the country that is on three sea-sides.
