There's a few different ways to do 3D printed metal, but this looks different then them.
Prometal, for example, has a process that's very similar to SLA or SLS, but with a stainless steel powder instead of resin. They then infuse it with bronze, using capillary action to do the work. You end up with pretty solid parts.
