Metals & Mineral Resources Division
Strategic sourcing, trading, and investment across base metals, battery materials, precious metals, and energy minerals worldwide.
Copper
We trade and invest in copper across the value chain, from concentrate offtake at mining operations to refined cathode distribution for electrical, construction, and renewable energy applications. Our global network connects producers in South America and Africa with manufacturers in Asia, Europe, and USA.
Bauxite
We source and trade bauxite ore for the aluminum supply chain, partnering with mining operations in Guinea, Australia, and Brazil to supply alumina refineries and smelters globally. Our logistics expertise ensures efficient bulk shipping from mine to port to end user.
Lithium
We participate in the fast-growing lithium market supporting the electric vehicle and battery storage industries, sourcing spodumene concentrate and lithium chemicals from Australia and South America for battery manufacturers in Asia.
Manganese
We trade manganese ore and alloys essential for steelmaking and battery cathode production, working with producers in South Africa, Gabon, and Australia to supply steel mills and specialty chemical manufacturers worldwide.
Gold
We engage in gold trading, refining partnerships, and investment across mining regions in Africa and Latin America, delivering bullion and refined gold to financial institutions, jewelers, and industrial users while upholding responsible sourcing standards.
Coltan
We source coltan (columbite-tantalite) responsibly from Central Africa, supplying tantalum for capacitors used in electronics, aerospace, and telecommunications, with strict adherence to conflict-free minerals traceability programs.
Palladium
We trade palladium and other platinum group metals used primarily in automotive catalytic converters and electronics, connecting mining output from Russia and Southern Africa with global refiners and industrial consumers.
Coal
We trade thermal and metallurgical coal, supporting power generation and steel production customers with reliable supply chains from Australia, Indonesia, and USA, while actively managing the transition toward lower-carbon energy portfolios.
