Ex Terra Podcast - Simon Drake @ Lunar Resources Registry
On this edition of The Ex Terra Podcast, we talk with Simon Drake, founder of The Lunar Resources Registry, about acquiring lunar mining rights.
Among the currently known and identified Lunar Resources are: Titanium, Iron, Silicon, Aluminum, Water, Oxygen, Hydrogen, and Helium-3. Their specific locations range from easy-to-access, to difficult-to-access but valuable; or shadowed craters that may have deposits of water. The Lunar Resources Registry (LRR) assists commercial and non-commercial organizations in acquiring lunar mining rights to explore specific areas and extract resources, along with providing actionable data, insight and records about the available resources on the moon. These insights in terms of the size, grade, volume, and location of any given resource will give a better understanding to support investment decisions in exploration and possible extraction missions of lunar resources.
The LRR has developed a Registry Platform, as well as the necessary Legal and Policy Frameworks, to give Space Resources a base from which to grow.
According to Drake, registration is at the very core of creating a safe and sustainable environment in space to conduct public and private activities. Without proper registration, coordination to avoid harmful interference cannot take place. The Artemis Accords reinforces the critical nature of registration and urges any partner which isn’t already a member of the Registration Convention to join as soon as possible.
The Lunar Resources Registry UG offers a service to selected clients to register rights to explore and extract a portfolio of resources locations on the Lunar surface. Registration conditions are straightforward and are compliant with Space Laws such as UNOOSA. Commercial activity is planned for June 2021.
The LRR sees the resources on the Lunar Surface as the next logical development in the evolution of Space Commerce as terrestrial mining companies are increasingly under strain on earth to avoid environmental damage and are also facing technical extremes in many of their activities that make their existing business models less attractive.
The Lunar Resources Registry began registering actual locations of nations and their respective space agency's locations of landers, rovers and impact sites in October 2020.
