Oceans contain within them a great many resources. By mining and delving deep into the vast marine depths, enabled with the aid of equipment-fitted ships, these oceanic resources have been successfully excavated. Mining Vessel “Peace in Africa” is the most noteworthy mining ship that is in operation today.

The biggest mining ship, MV Peace in Africa was launched in the year 2007 for the exploration of the SASA (South African Sea Areas) by the conglomerate De Beers well-known for their diamond exploration and mining. The most important feature and the uniqueness of the mining ship is that it is the first vessel to carry out marine mining in the Western seacoast part of South Africa, in the Atlantic Ocean.
