人们关于海底热液矿产资源的探索虽然可追溯到几十年前,但真正的调查研究也不过是最近10余年的事情。1944年瑞典科学考察船“信天翁”号首先在红海发现了盐度和温度都偏高的海水。1965年美国“发现者”号在红海发现了高热卤水,次年又在红海的阿特兰提斯Ⅱ海渊发现了热液多金属软泥。从此,揭开了人类研究现代海底热液矿产资源的新篇章。1972年美国科学家罗纳确认大 Although people’s exploration of seafloor hydrothermal mineral resources can be traced back to several decades ago, the real investigation and study have only been the last 10 years or so. 1944 Swedish scientific research ship “Albatross” first found in the Red Sea salinity and temperature are high in the sea. In 1965, the United States Discovered discovered hot brine in the Red Sea, and the following year discovered hydrothermal polymetallic slime at the Atlantis Deep II in the Red Sea. Since then, the human opened a new chapter in the research of modern seafloor hydrothermal mineral resources. 1972 American scientist Ronald confirmed big
