PRECIOUS & BASE METALS

AFRICA GOLD has facilitated over 3,400 verified mineral shipments to buyers across six continents since 2015. We don’t trade paper: we move physical gold, silver, and copper from licensed African sources, with full documentation, assay validation, and logistics control. This is how we supported a major commodity trading desk in Switzerland.

Challenge

A Geneva-based trading firm needed flexible, auditable supply of African gold and copper but faced fragmented sourcing, inconsistent grading, and compliance gaps from regional brokers. They required LBMA-aligned gold and LME-ready copper, with full chain-of-custody and ESG documentation.

Solution

AFRICA GOLD coordinated simultaneous shipments: 68kg of refined gold from Ghana and 95 metric tons of copper concentrate from South Africa. We managed independent assaying, secured export permits, provided conflict-free declarations, and arranged consolidated shipping to Rotterdam. Both cargoes cleared EU customs within 10 days with zero discrepancies.
