1. WP7 Minerals Geological Survey of Ireland Maria Judge, Charise McKeon, Ali Robinson, Janine Guinan, Archie Donovan, Koen Verbruggen Objective To identify and map the occurrences of mineral deposits (including aggregates, oil and gas and metalliferous minerals), within the EEZ of participating countries, based on information available to the project partners, including publicly‐available information (those not held under commercial restrictions) Description/deliverables Compile mineral deposit information and develop web mapping services for sharing spatial data between public organisations and authorities including EC and EU research, policy making institutions and commercial stakeholders for the sustainable geo-energy and mineral supply of Europe.

2. Phase 1 – Aggregate & Hydrocarbons Published Data

3. WP7 Task Guide circulated March 11 th 2014 A guide to the deliverables associated with EMODnet- Geology Phase II work package 7: Minerals; where ‘minerals’ refer to marine mineral deposits on or under the seabed. The types of mineral deposits that occur on and/or beneath the seafloor, to be included in EMODnet work package 7 are: aggregates hydrocarbons gas hydrates marine placer deposits phosphorite deposits evaporite deposits polymetallic sulphides polymetallic nodules cobalt rich ferromanganese crust

12. WP7 Phase II – What's Next?? Assess Phase I deposit types V’s Phase II deposit types submitted to date for: Any duplication of deposit type areas Deposit type areas submitted to Phase II which may no longer be viable/exist (as per submitted to Phase I) Published deposit types which have not been submitted to date by project partners Following from the data assessment the following will be addressed: Keep Phase I and Phase II deposit types separate for publishing or update for Phase II based on Phase I? Add additional deposit types? Timelines for data publication? TimelineDeliverable MarchGSI to circulate WP 7 Minerals Task Guide to all partners. May 31 st First round of data collation. Updates and new, readily available (in-house) data to submit, in shapefile format, by all partners to the GSI. May 31 st - September 30th Available third party data compilation and submission. September 30th EMODnet progress meeting. GSI to present updated draft distribution maps of: Aggregates, Hydrocarbons, and the “new” deposit types. September 30th EMODnet progress meeting. GSI to present update and initial draft compilation of mineral deposits layers November 1 st Final data submission form all partner November 30 th 2014 Completed draft of layers published and hosted live on the EMODnet viewer Post November 2014 Case studies and six monthly updates thereafter

13. Please submit your data!!! We ask that once your shapefiles and attribution data are complete, to please deliver these data to Charise McKeon at the GSI (charise.mckeon@gsi.ie) by November 1 st 2014.charise.mckeon@gsi.ie On receiving your data, GSI will standardise these data, then author WMS service layers, which will be consumed within the EMODnet viewer. If you require comment or advice at any time, on any aspect of WP7, then feel free to contact the relevant personnel. Please submit your data for compilation to Charise McKeon (charise.mckeon@gsi.ie) cc’ing: Maria Judge (maria.judge@gsi.ie) Thank You for Listening
