Our Business Model

Direct Shipping Ore

Our Direct Shipping Ore (DSO) approach provides immediate cash flow by selling high-grade, surface-level copper-cobalt oxide material to local warehouses and Gécamines-approved facilities. This strategy funds ongoing exploration without equity dilution — creating a self-sustaining operational model that accelerates discovery while demonstrating early economic viability.

Operational Strategy We operate DSO for copper cuttings, processing at top facilities in DRC or Zambia. Final product ships to the client’s chosen destination. Whether FOB or CIF, we tailor terms to client needs — ensuring flexibility and reliability across all commodity grades.

Commodity Portfolio

Base, Precious & Strategic Minerals

Our concessions span the Lualaba–Copperbelt geological corridor — one of the world’s richest mineral provinces — hosting a diversified portfolio of high-value commodities.

🬄
Copper
Cu · Base Metal

High-grade copper oxide and sulphide mineralization. Direct shipped as ore to Gécamines warehouse or processed to copper cathode sheets for export. Primary revenue driver on Mokambo 1.

DSO Active
🔵
Cobalt
Co · Strategic Metal

Co-occurring with copper deposits at Mokambo 1. Critical for EV battery supply chains. Surface oxide material amenable to direct shipping and hydrometallurgical processing.

Co-Product
🟢
Scheelite / Tungsten
CaWO₄ · W · Strategic

High-grade scheelite-bearing skarn confirmed at H-Robertii. UV-fluorescent drill core. Tungsten is critical for defence, hard metals, and advanced manufacturing worldwide.

Confirmed · Drill Ready
🔮
Spodumene / Lithium
LiAlSi₂O₆ · Li · Battery

Newly discovered spodumene at our Manono-adjacent site. Lithium-bearing pegmatite within one of the world’s most significant lithium provinces. Highly strategic commodity.

New Discovery
⬛
Tantalum
Ta · Critical Mineral

Tantalite-columbite (coltan) occurrences across licence areas. Essential for capacitors in smartphones, aerospace, and medical devices. Responsibly managed 3TG programme.

Exploration Target
🪰
Tin / Cassiterite
SnO₂ · Sn · Base Metal

Cassiterite prospecting within the broader DRC mineral belt. Tin is essential for solder in electronics, tinplate packaging, and lead-free alloys — growing strategic importance.

Methodology

Geo-botanical
Prospecting

Our proprietary non-invasive technique uses native hyperaccumulator flora as bio-indicators of subsurface mineralisation — validated since 2018.

01
Hyperaccumulator Mapping

Field teams identify native hyperaccumulator plants that concentrate specific metals from soil. Their distribution directly indicates subsurface mineralisation, reducing drill costs and environmental impact.

02
Topsoil & Surface Sampling

Systematic topsoil sampling and field rock identification at H-Robertii. Sample finds GPS-tagged and logged. Scheelite-bearing skarn exposed at surface across multiple outcrops.

03
Drill Core UV Testing

Scan drill cores with UV light for blue fluorescence — the diagnostic signature of scheelite (CaWO₄). Assay tungsten values to determine ore grade and economic viability.

Spodumene
04
Satellite Verification

Satellite imagery validation of all target zones (WGS84). H-Robertii confirmed at -10.58772, 25.23768 — 4,249 ft. Aerial mapping confirms structural geology consistent with skarn mineralisation.
