49% : The Council of the International Seabed Authority (ISA) ruled out any immediate permission for mining to begin, as expected, after a meeting in Kingston that ended on Friday, but kept open a legal loophole that could allow it to begin next year.
42% : TMC Chairman and CEO Gerard Barron said in a statement the company was "disappointed" that the ISA had failed to complete regulations on time but he was confident mining would begin soon.
