Integrated Production and Supply Chain
Steencore Group delivers a world-class production and supply chain for critical minerals, focusing on copper and cobalt—key inputs for modern industries and the global energy transition. Our approach spans responsible sourcing, extraction, processing, and logistics, ensuring institutional clients receive high-quality products with full transparency and traceability.
Copper and cobalt are pivotal to the global industrial landscape. In sub-Saharan Africa, Zambia is a leading copper producer, while the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) dominates global cobalt production. These minerals underpin sectors such as electric vehicles, renewable energy storage, electronics, and construction, positioning them as essential drivers of technological progress and economic growth.
Steencore is committed to sourcing minerals ethically and sustainably, in line with international standards, including OECD Due Diligence Guidance and the Global Battery Alliance’s Cobalt Action Partnership. We collaborate with local governments, communities, and mining operators to ensure compliance with environmental, social, and governance (ESG) standards, promote fair labor practices, reduce environmental impact, and foster community development.
Steencore’s supply chain is designed to provide institutional clients with secure, reliable, and efficient delivery. Key pillars include:
Strategic Sourcing: Partnering with reputable mining operators to ensure traceable, ethically sourced materials and mitigate operational risks.
Logistics and Distribution: Leveraging multimodal transport networks for timely, cost-efficient, and low-carbon delivery worldwide.
Sustainability and Innovation: Investing in energy-efficient refining, renewable-powered operations, and circular economy initiatives to minimize environmental impact.
By integrating ethical sourcing, operational excellence, and ESG-aligned practices, Steencore delivers high-quality cobalt and copper products while supporting economic growth in sub-Saharan Africa. Our approach balances risk management, sustainability, and long-term social and environmental impact, positioning us as a trusted partner for financial institutions and strategic counterparties navigating the global critical minerals market.
