Sustainable metal mining

We are using chemistry to extract minerals from brine to make critical materials that slash emissions, remove carbon, and cool the planet.

Magmec was founded with a vision to transform the metal industry by solving two major challenges: building a localized supply of critical materials and reducing carbon emissions in metal production.

 

We extract clean, low-carbon magnesium from coastal brine sources, including water desalination by-products, turning industrial waste into valuable materials 

no longer relying on traditional land-based mining.

Our solution empowers industries like steel, automotive, and aerospace in building a more sustainable future.

Critically Denoted

The UK, USA and EU have designated magnesium as a critical material due to its role in various industries, including energy applications.

Supply Risk

Almost 90% of the worlds supply for Magnesium is produced in China, supply remains a risk for those countries with reliance on imported magnesium.
