Ministry of Foreign Affairs, was announced as the continental shelf of Japan on the international law that can be collected and mineral resources of the seabed, and was recognized from the Committee of the United Nations, such as waters of the Pacific Ocean east of the Ogasawara Islands, approximately 310,000 square kilometers.
It was observed expansion of the continental shelf of Japan is the first time, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, have been "future, the development of natural resources such as rare metals is expected to become an important step towards the expansion of the maritime interests of Japan" .
In the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea, which then can be collected, such as mineral resources, waters 200 nautical miles = up to 370 km approximately from the shoreline as a general rule, and continental shelf of the country, for its outside, and thickness of sedimentary rocks and the terrain of the seabed certain conditions are met, Le et al. recognized as the continental shelf.
It was recognized, in the area equivalent to more than 80% of Japan's land, and four of the Pacific Ocean waters, such as sulfur and east of the Ogasawara Islands south of the island.
For around Okinotorishima, which had been urged to claim "It's not a rock island" China and South Korea will not be recognized, while the waters of the north of the island was recognized, the waters south of the island is screening has been postponed.
Has been seen on the seabed around the Ogasawara Islands, etc., and are distributed in the crystal was dissolved in hot water, such as copper and rare metals, such as "sea-floor hydrothermal deposit."
For this reason, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has "future, the development of natural resources such as rare metals is expected to become an important step towards the expansion of the maritime interests of Japan." I have a good direction towards Japan for a maritime nation. I want you to become the leader of the group is a maritime nation with a more focused development of marine resources.

外務省は、海底の鉱物資源などを採取できる国際法上の日本の大陸棚として、小笠原諸島の東などの太平洋の海域、およそ31万平方キロメートルが国連の委員会から認められたと発表した。
日本の大陸棚の拡大が認められたのは初めてで、外務省は、「将来、レアメタルなどの天然資源の開発が期待され、日本の海洋権益の拡充に向けて重要な一歩になる」としている。
日本の大陸棚の拡大が認められたのは初めてで、外務省は、「将来、レアメタルなどの天然資源の開発が期待され、日本の海洋権益の拡充に向けて重要な一歩になる」としている。
国連海洋法条約では、原則として海岸線から200海里=およそ370キロまでの海域を、鉱物資源などを採取できる、その国の大陸棚としており、その外側についても、海底の地形や堆積岩の厚さなど一定の条件が満たされれば、大陸棚として認めらる。
認められたのは、日本の国土の8割余りに当たる面積で、小笠原諸島の東や硫黄島の南などの太平洋の4か所の海域です。
沖ノ鳥島周辺については、中国や韓国が「島ではなく岩だ」と主張して、認めないよう求めてたが、島の北方の海域が認められた一方、島の南方の海域は審査が先送りされました。
小笠原諸島などの周辺の海底には、レアメタルや銅などが熱水に溶け込んで結晶した「海底熱水鉱床」などが分布しているとみられています。
このため、外務省は「将来、レアメタルなどの天然資源の開発が期待され、日本の海洋権益の拡充に向けて重要な一歩になる」としています。海洋国家日本にとって良い方向に向かっていますね。海洋資源開発に一層力を注いで海洋国家群のリーダーになってほしいですね。
