U-864 raised?

Has the U-864 finally been raised? There has been no info I can find since 2010. At that time the Mammoet Ltd. got the contract and was to begin the lift. If there is a serious mercury leak , it needs to be dealt with soon while the canisters still have some integrity.

I respectfully recognize it is a war grave, but unless the two parts of the sub are still solid and protected from sea water incursion, there will be no human remains. Even bones are destroyed after ten years by salt water as evidenced by the Titanic exploration.
