Unless you’re a student of Japanese geography, you’ve probably never heard of Minamitorishima Island. And there’s a good reason for that. The tiny island is just over half a mile square, and although it’s technically a part of Tokyo, it’s more than a thousand miles away from the capital in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. However, a recent discovery at the island could well bring it wider notoriety. Why? Because the find’s impact could be so huge it might just change the world economy.
