The Metals Company Total Duration 7 yrs 1 mo Title Chairman & CEO Dates Employed Dec 2017 – Present Employment Duration 3 yrs 8 mos Title Chairman and CEO Dates Employed Jul 2014 – Present Employment Duration 7 yrs 1 mo Location Greater Los Angeles Area Transitioning to clean energy requires hundreds of millions of tons of metals—particularly nickel, copper, cobalt, and manganese—for the batteries needed to store this energy. This is where DeepGreen comes in. Land mining today requires digging deeper and wider for lower-quality ores, devastating biodiverse ecosystems in the process. We’ve found a better way: polymetallic nodules on the seafloor in the Clarion Clipperton Zone, four kilometers deep, which contain rich concentrations of these base metals. As stewards of these rocks, we’ve baselined the environment, from seafloor to surface, to study the impacts of collecting them. Joining forces with leading engineers, scientists, and architects, we now have the capability to recover these remarkable rocks with the lightest planetary impact.
There are a few companies that merged and partnerd or sold.
I connected with a few directors LinkedIn.
Never finished my DD.There were patents of some sort or they had right to the mining or both.

Our Chairman and CEO, Gerard Barron, recently sat down with Autoline Network host John McElroy to discuss The Metals Company’s ESG prerequisites for production, and why countries around the world are realizing that the metals found in polymetallic nodules— nickel, copper, cobalt, and manganese —are necessary for energy independence.
