Responsible investment opportunities

Our approach to investing in the flow of responsibly mined minerals

We have developed a pipeline of small-scale mines committed to ESG improvement across East and Central Africa. Our team of financial, mining, and environmental experts guide these partner mines through a structured process of business and ESG diagnostics; identifying their technical and capital needs and consolidating these into a professional investment note.

Once approved by our investment committee,  on-boarded mines are able to access appropriate modern technology, through our industry-leading equipment lease-to-own model, with a focus on:

Clean Energy

To support the transition to climate-smart mining.

Biodiversity Protection

Through elimination of toxic chemical use.

Increased Value Retention

By optimisation of mine production & processing.

This support is complemented by our team of technical experts, who work with mines to accelerate their professionalization and continuous ESG improvement in line with international industry standards.
