We do know that not only is the seabed vacuumed up indiscriminately but also a plume if waste will be allowed to spread with the currents an smother a wide area of the seabed.

What we don't know is what else will be being destroyed with this activity. Ignorance is not a good basis for any decision.

Seabed mining is banned in most parts of the world for a very good reason.
But, we never will know what we don't know. Ever.
