Deep Sea mining, like asteroid mining, is a relatively unconventional method of extracting Rare Earth elements (REEs). Unlike asteroid mining, however, deep sea mining has already been undertaken through projects such as deep sea diamond mining. Actual mining for REEs has not been attempted because of environmental issues and cost.

The roof of a mine can collapse and cause rocks and debris to become unstable and possibly strike workers. Sometimes collapses are scheduled and systematically planned and control the hazard of a cave in. Appropriate safety plans will need to be practiced and workers should be trained on what to do in case of a cave in or a collapse in the mine.
