Lets say I made a robot with a bunch of tools and landed it on the Moon (Luna).
Then using remote control I instructed a robot over video/control channel to extract some resources (metals, oxigen, ...) from Lunar regolith. I figured out a way to separate and store the gases. I've used metals to build a platform for landing.



Question: who owns the supplies and infrastructure if there was no living being involved in immediate proximity.



Any authoritative sources?

    It'd be interesting to see this compared/contrasted to current international laws regarding oil platforms in international waters. Presumably there aren't any fully automated oil rigs yet, but once there are, they'd seem analogous.

There are two schools of thought discussed in Asteroid Mining: International and Legal Aspects by Frans G. von der Dunk:



Perspective 1: The US and countries like Luxembourg believe that any resources mined on the moon are global commons which allows licensed entities to make a commercial business out of mining the moon. (see page 96 in the document and footnotes #59 to 61 including 1, 2, 3)



Perspective 2: Other countries like Russia and Belgium believe any resources mined on the moon should be the property of all humanity or needs to be heavily regulated. (See pages 97 and 98 in the document and footnoted material)
