Our history
Seafarer Exploration Corp (OTCQB: SFRX) is an underwater archaeological exploration and technology company innovating how underwater history is discovered, conserved, and experienced. Its mission is to rescue an unparalleled collection of historical artifacts from the waters of the world while adhering to the highest code of archaeological ethics. To achieve its mission, Seafarer Exploration Corp has originated the practice of underwater rescue archaeology, which involves sensitive research, documentation, exploration, recovery, and conservation of historic underwater sites before they are lost to the elements forever. Seafarer Exploration Corp has assembled a multi-disciplinary team of experts in the fields particular to underwater rescue archaeology – from underwater archaeologists and conservationists to engineers and experienced mariners. This team has developed and continuously advances breakthrough technologies and state-of-the-art processes essential to the unique demands of underwater rescue archaeology. For example, innovative technology developed by Seafarer Exploration Corp has revolutionized how the location, depth, size, and composition of buried objects are determined. This radically reduces the time and resources required to explore a site and enables surgical underwater archaeological investigations. Artifacts recovered by Seafarer Exploration Corp are meticulously conserved, documented, and reported in its archaeology lab, which boasts capabilities like that of a major institution or top museum but on a smaller scale.
Unlike most salvors of the past, Seafarer Exploration Corp is not selling any of the artifacts it recovers. Instead, it will keep its collection whole and work with media partners, museums, governments, and private companies to reconsider how underwater artifacts are recorded and presented for the good of the public.
