Delivering critical materials of tomorrow

End-to-end supply process

We manage every single stage in the critical material supply chain. From sourcing raw materials to delivering processed commodities, our process is diligent, swift and all-encompassing.

Sourcing

We source mineral ores from trusted local mines and traders, adhering to international standards and local regulations.

Processing & export

We test and verify raw materials, manage their initial processing, and prepare documents required for export.

Storage/blending

We can blend different concentrates to provide optimal properties and specifications to meet our client’s demands.

Tolling

In certain cases, we can buy back refined metals produced from our sourced ores and concentrates from smelters.

Logistics & delivery

We arrange for materials to be transported to the client's country, directly to their facilities or specified location.

Quality & efficiency

Our on-site experts meticulously supervise each step of the process, from sourcing to shipping and container sealing, while authorized third-party laboratories assure material credibility and authenticity.

To streamline the entire process, we work directly with suppliers in Africa and around the world, and our logistics partners manage import procedures in major importing countries such as China.
