## About

Established in 2017 by Howard Yuh, and based in New York, US, Tidal Metals, formerly GreenBlu, Inc. operates as a metal manufacturing company that manufactures decarbonized magnesium metal using seawater. In September 2024, Tidal Metals raised USD 8.5 million in seed funding led by Dcvc, with participation from First Spark Ventures, and Bidra Innovation Ventures.

Tidal Metals offers the production of low-cost, zero-carbon magnesium by extracting it from seawater using renewable electricity. This process avoids mining, chemicals, and brine waste, offering a sustainable solution to the global magnesium supply. Tidal Metals aims to decarbonize metal production and reduce emissions, especially by replacing steel in vehicles, for use in industries such as aerospace and automotive.

The company intends to use the September 2024 funding to develop and construct a commercial pilot plant for extracting magnesium metal from seawater.
