    Hopefully we find out how much oxygen is generated by this process before deep sea mining is on full swing.

      I would be shocked if the broad international community permitted anything before we got to the bottom of this.

      Going by their measurements, it’s very significant, at least for the deep sea. Covered sediment reached surface-like levels of oxygenation.
