The Metals Company is a deep-sea minerals exploration company focused on the collection, processing and refining of polymetallic nodules, containing nickel, copper and cobalt, found on the seafloor in international waters of the Clarion Clipperton Zone, 1,300 nautical miles off the coast of Southern California.

The decarbonisation of the automotive sector is gathering pace with sales doubling in 2021 to nearly 10% of the global market. This seismic shift will require a significant increase in the availability of nickel, cobalt and manganese for the batteries required to power electric vehicles. We estimate TMC’s total nickel resources could electrify 230 million cars.
