However, due to the sensitivity and environmental impact of mining, the exploitation of these resources is prohibited under the Antarctic Treaty System.
The Antarctic Treaty System is a set of international agreements that established Antarctica as a scientific preserve. It regulates the use and management of the region and ensures peaceful cooperation among the countries that have signed the treaty. Antarctica holds great geopolitical significance due to its abundance of natural resources and strategic location. Ownership and access to these resources have been a subject of international debate and agreement, which led to the creation of the Antarctic Treaty System.
There are currently 54 countries that have signed and ratified the Antarctic Treaty System. The main purpose of the Antarctic Treaty System is to preserve the unique ecosystem of Antarctica and its scientific value while promoting international cooperation and preventing militarization and territorial claims in the region.
The climate in Antarctica is extremely cold, with temperatures that can drop as low as -80°C. It is also very dry and windy, and most of the continent is covered in ice and snow. The Antarctic Circle is an imaginary line that marks the southernmost point on Earth where the sun can be seen at least once a year, during the summer solstice. It is located at 66.5 degrees south latitude.
