Looks like seabed mining is already taking place for diamonds in Africa. The collecting machine is virtually identical to the Nautilus one.

Wow looking good hopefully....

Isn't this the opposite of what the environmentalist wants to see? Nautilus pushed all of the material right back down where it can from. Not dumping from the surface from the ship....

6 years after the Nautilus "bankruptcy" the Victory Precious Metals & Minerals Fund still has their 5.7+ million shares. It's still their 4th largest position. Let's all stay together on this - no surrender until NUSMF disappears!!

I asked my AI to look into it. The thing is usually optimistic.
In light of the current market data for January 2026, Nautilus Minerals (NUSMF) remains a highly speculative "zombie" stock. While its technical existence on the Expert Market fuels retail hope for a comeback, the legal and financial reality is far more grim.
Current Ownership and Stock Status
As of early 2026, NUSMF is traded on the Expert Market, a tier of the OTC market reserved for companies that are not current in their financial reporting. The stock price has effectively bottomed out at $0.000001, reflecting its status as a company in liquidation.
Major Institutional/Private Owners: Historically, the company was dominated by MB Holding Company LLC (Oman-based) and Metalloinvest (Russia-based). These two entities formed Deep Sea Mine Finance (DSMF), which ultimately acquired Nautilus's remaining assets and intellectual property during the bankruptcy proceedings.
The "Victory Fund" Holding: Interestingly, the Victory Precious Metals & Minerals Fund has historically held roughly 5.7 million shares. While forum discussions suggest this is a sign of hope, it is more likely a "written-down" asset that remains on the books because the company has not yet fully disappeared from the registry.
Potential for a Reverse Merger
The idea of an existing mining company using the NUSMF ticker for a reverse merger is a common theory on investor forums, but it faces several major hurdles:
Debt and Liability: Nautilus went through a court-sanctioned liquidation. Any company merging into the NUSMF "shell" would potentially inherit its complex web of debts and legal baggage, making it a much less attractive option than simply starting a new IPO or finding a "clean" shell.
Asset Acquisition vs. Stock Merger: Deep-sea mining interests have already moved on. Most of Nautilus's valuable technology and leases were transferred to Deep Sea Mine Finance (DSMF). If a mining giant wanted to enter the space, they would likely buy the assets directly from DSMF rather than merging with the defunct NUSMF stock.
The Rise of TMC: The Metals Company (TMC) is currently the dominant player in the sector. They have already gone public via a SPAC (a form of reverse merger) and are actively filing for commercial recovery permits. There is no evidence or logical incentive for a leader like TMC to utilize the Nautilus shell.
The Verdict
While there are rumors of a "hostile bid" or a "reverse triangular merger" to keep shareholder equity alive, these are largely unsupported by official filings. The company's assets—the real value—are already largely in the hands of its former creditors (DSMF).
Note: Because NUSMF is on the Expert Market, most retail brokers will only allow you to sell your position (if there is a buyer), not buy more.
