- Deep Sea Minerals Corp. is a Canadian exploration and resource development company engaged in the identification, evaluation, and development of subsea critical mineral assets. Founded in 2022 and headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, the company operates in the marine mining and energy transition materials sectors, focusing on deep-ocean mineral concessions across the Clarion-Clipperton Zone in the Pacific Ocean and offshore jurisdictions aligned with North American critical mineral supply chain strategies. The company targets end-market demand from electric vehicle battery manufacturers, clean energy technology developers, aerospace and defense contractors, and advanced industrial manufacturers. Deep Sea Minerals Corp. structures its offerings around several core operational and technical categories: subsea mineral resource exploration and deposit evaluation; seafloor polymetallic nodule assessment containing high concentrations of nickel, cobalt, copper, manganese, and rare earth elements; bathymetric mapping, high-resolution oceanographic survey, and seabed sampling programs; deep-ocean environmental baseline data collection and environmental impact monitoring; and the integration of low-impact, autonomous underwater harvesting technologies. The company has executed several major strategic and operational changes. In January 2026, it completed a formal change of business and corporate rebranding, transitioning from a land-based mineral explorer, Copperhead Resources Inc., to Deep Sea Minerals Corp., listing its common shares on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the ticker SEAS, the OTCQB Venture Market under DSEAF, and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under X450, accompanied by the appointment of James A. Deckelman as Chief Executive Officer. In June 2026, the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration determined the company's application for seabed exploration concessions under the Deep Seabed Hard Mineral Resources Act to be in substantial compliance with federal regulatory requirements. In July 2026, the company signed a strategic Memorandum of Understanding with Impossible Metals to evaluate and integrate autonomous, computer-vision-driven robotic nodule collection systems designed to minimize seabed environmental disturbance. In August 2026, Deep Sea Minerals Corp. filed a registration statement on Form F-10 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission under the Canada-U.S. Multijurisdictional Disclosure System, establishing U.S. reporting issuer status to expand access to North American capital markets.
