Vema Seamount

Picture
A Unique Oceanic Island
When people think of Mount Vema or Vema Seamount today, images of water, fishery, royalty and wealth spring to mind. However this unique South East Atlantic territory, is not just ​a submerged ancient island, once at the surface of the sea which eroded by millions of years of wave action. Mount Vema is a monument, a piece of rock inextricably linked with The Vema Seamount Authority - Peter J. Goldishman who has managed to propel this once overfished and almost forgotten submerged island, to a well-managed and well-regulated fishing ground, and transformed it, to its greatest ever imagined state of wealth and prominence. Kingdom of Mount Vema is now the official country name, and City of Mount Vema is the floating city project, aiming to be the largest and the only floating City-State in the world.

​The Atlantic Ocean, the second largest ocean in the world. But just under the Tropic of Capricorn, in the South Atlantic East, about 11 meters below the surface, lays a monument. A monument discovered in the late 1950s by a ship called Vema. This monument, which rises more than 4,000 meters from the seabed, became known as Vema Seamount.
​
Vema Seamount, is not just a seamount or an independent feature rising above the seafloor and considered to be within the deep sea. This rock is four times bigger than a typical seamount, which makes it a monument, and its impact in the ocean is four to five times bigger than that of a seamount.

With a plateau-like summit of approximately 14 kilometers in diameter, and a mean base diameter of about 60 kilometers, it cannot be categorized as a seamount. It may not be an island, but it is not a seamount either, it is simply,

​Mount Vema!

A submerged and ancient rock, once at the surface of the sea, eroded by millions of years of wave action. A sovereign territory, inextricably linked with The Vema Seamount Authority, Peter J Goldishman,  who has managed to propel this overfished and almost forgotten ancient island once at the surface of the sea, to a well-managed and well-regulated fishing ground, and transformed it, to its greatest ever imagined state of wealth and prominence.

​Vema Seamount - Vema is the location of an intraplate volcano (the Vema hotspot) which have moved farther west, about 200 kilometres, after it created the Vema Seamount.

​Vema Seamount Terrain -  The Vema Seamount summit substrate is rocky, with phonolite outcrops, bedrock of volcanic ash agglomerates, and calcareous accretions. The seamount's plateau-like summit is approximately 14 kilometers in diameter, with the highest peak located on the southern flank of the island. However the mean base diameter of the country is about 60 kilometers.

Vema Seamount - 1966 and 2014 Findings

A study published by the Government of Mount Vema agreed with the views of the University of Cape Town and Nature Publishing Group published in 1966 of the probability that Vema Seamount was once an island at the surface of the sea.

In 2014, The Royal Foundation Academy of Mount Vema concluded in its report presented to His Majesty King Peter Jon Goldishman that its findings were very similar to that reported by Heirtzler James in 1966 titled 'Magnetic Anomaly over Vema Seamount'. The Heirtzler James 1966 Report states that the fact that Vema Seamount magnetization is not exactly reversed suggested that Vema Seamount is not homogeneously magnetized, due perhaps to differential deformation. The theory was supported by the Royal Foundation Academy of Mount Vema in 2014 who also believes based on its own findings that the deformation and the millions of years of wave action eroded the island from the time when the top was at the surface of the sea and planed it off, which explains the Vema Seamount’s flat top.

Heirtzler James 1966 findings report and the Royal Foundation Academy of Mount Vema findings in 2014, both indicate that the magnetic anomaly of Vema Seamount shows the negative part of the anomaly pattern occurring towards magnetic north relative to the positive part of the pattern, indicating that the seamount could not have been formed at a time when the earth's magnetic field was in its present direction, but rather at a time when the field was in nearly the opposite direction.
​
His Majesty’s Government of Mount Vema officially concluded that Vema Seamount is therefore much older than previously thought and it was once an island at the surface of the sea. What remains of the island is what we came to know as a seamount.
