Operations

Three crafts, one continuous line.

Mining, processing, trading — each a discipline in its own right. Together, a chain without seams.

Mining

It starts in the ground.

The group's mining activity is anchored in the Central African Copperbelt, the mineral province that stretches across Zambia and the Katanga region of the Democratic Republic of Congo — home to some of the richest copper and cobalt deposits on earth. Working close to the resource, with the people who know it best, is the foundation everything else stands on.

  • Copperbelt anchorage — Zambia & DR Congo
  • Copper, zinc and cobalt ore
  • Long-term local partnerships

Processing

Value is refined at source.

Raw ore that leaves the continent unprocessed leaves its value behind. The group's processing activity transforms material close to where it is mined, concentrating, refining and preparing metal so that what travels is worth travelling. It is better for the metal, for the margin and for the countries where the group operates.

  • Transformation close to the mine
  • From ore to market-ready metal
  • Quality controlled at every step

Trading

The desk closes the loop.

From Switzerland, the United Kingdom and Dubai, the group structures the commercial side of the chain: pricing, logistics, counterparties and delivery. Because the desk sits inside the same group as the mine and the plant, it commits with the confidence of first-hand knowledge.

  • Desks across three trading jurisdictions
  • Physical flows, structured end-to-end
  • Direct line to the group's own supply
