Mining in Antarctica Australian Antarctic Program
Mining in Antarctica is banned indefinitely by the Protocol on Environmental Protection (the Madrid Protocol). This important agreement came into force in January 1998. Before then, the economic challenge of mining in Antarctica prevented any commercial operations. There are deposits of minerals in Antarctica, including coal and iron ore.

2022-2-2 The Antarctic Treaty made the continent off-limits to military activity, but said nothing about oil drilling or mining. In the 1980s, Greenpeace campaigned to create ‘World Park Antarctica’, even setting up a scientific base. We won, and in 1991 the continent of Antarctica was protected from exploitation. There are also protected areas at sea.
