After a false alarm last year, it appears that the Australians have begun an effort in earnest to find the wrecks of the Kormoran and the Sydney:

Deep-water sonar imaging equipment will be used in an area about 1,800 square nautical miles in size in water depths from 2,300 to 4,200 meters, according to the Australian Ministry of Defense official website. The team will try to start with the approximate location of the Kormoran, which is known, says Warren Snowdon, the Australian Minister for Defense Science and Personnel. Reports from survivors of the Kormoran’s crew on the movements of the Australian ship may then allow the team to find the wreck.

Kormoran drifted a bit before sinking, and Sydney may have drifted for quite some time, but finding the former should facilitate finding the latter. Whether the wrecks will help clear up the mystery surrounding Sydney’s loss is another question altogether.
