India in Undersea Race to Mine World’s Battery Metal

India is joining the global race to mine the world’s battery metals, as demand for electric vehicles continues to grow.

With increasing pressure to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, countries are ramping up their efforts to secure a steady supply of lithium, cobalt, and other essential metals used in the production of batteries for electric vehicles.

India, with its vast coastline and proximity to undersea mineral deposits, is poised to become a major player in this emerging industry. The country has started exploring deep-sea mining opportunities and has already secured exploration rights in the Indian Ocean.

By tapping into these undersea resources, India can not only strengthen its own economy but also reduce its reliance on imports of critical battery metals from other countries.

The race to mine undersea battery metals is just beginning, and India is positioning itself to be at the forefront of this exciting new frontier.
