What we do

Our step by step process from mine to market is the same around the world.

The first stage is exploration, which involves finding mineral deposits in a sustainable way by our specialised exploration team. Maintaining a social licence to operate throughout this phase and into the development of a mining operation is crucial. This allows us to responsibly mine the economic resources in the ground. We then extract the resource in the safest and most efficient way possible and finally, the mined resource is then processed and refined to add extra value and only then is the commodity ready to be moved and tailored to specific markets.
