Mineral trading
and mining strategy.

Our work begins with a buying requirement or a project brief. We establish the proposed commercial role and coordinate the information and specialists needed to assess it.

Mineral sourcing & trade

Organising a
mineral purchase.

We work from the material, product form, specification, quantity and delivery point you require. We identify potential source enquiries and coordinate the records needed to assess whether the supply is suitable.

Our role can include aggregation across third-party sources. The seller, authority to sell, lot identity and contractual responsibilities need to be established for the purchase. Where sources are combined, the sampling and lot records must reflect that.

  • Buyer requirements
  • Source and counterparty records
  • Sampling and inspection arrangements
  • Commercial and document coordination

Project partnerships

Finding the support
a project needs.

We welcome Nigerian mining-project discussions with title holders, operators, technical specialists, buyers and prospective investors.

We first establish the project stage and the proposed contribution: technical work, operating support, a customer for the output or funding. The parties can then agree what needs to be reviewed before taking the discussion further.

  • Project and partner introductions
  • Scope of the proposed contribution
  • Information required for review
  • Commercial partnership discussions

Planning the
commercial work.

A development plan needs to identify the intended product, its potential customers and the evidence required to assess production. We help project owners organise those questions and identify the work that should come next.

Geological assessment, engineering, environmental studies, legal advice and financial analysis require suitably qualified specialists. We coordinate the agreed work; we do not replace those professional responsibilities.
