fernanda's continental shelf
This is taken from the Unites Nations Law of the Sea - UNCLOS III:
"The continental shelf is defined as the natural prolongation of the land territory to the continental margin’s outer edge, or 200 nautical miles from the coastal state’s baseline, whichever is greater. State’s continental shelf may exceed 200 nautical miles until the natural prolongation ends. However, it may never exceed 350 nautical miles from the baseline; or it may never exceed 100 nautical miles beyond the 2,500 meter isobath (the line connecting the depth of 2,500 meters). Coastal states have the right to harvest mineral and non-living material in the subsoil of its continental shelf, to the exclusion of others. Coastal states also have exclusive control over living resources "attached" to the continental shelf, but not to creatures living in the water column beyond the exclusive economic zone."

So folks, as you can see there is a correspondent here (fernanda..?) who is lying through his teeth..
And he has been told about this on previous occasions - for example:

Kindest regards from the Falkland Islands
