Completed

Our flagship international project establishing a regional processing facility to serve West African mining operations with full LBMA compliance and sustainable practices.

Project Story

The Angola Western Site represents our largest international expansion project, designed to serve the growing precious metals industry across West Africa. This strategic development was undertaken in partnership with local governments and communities to ensure sustainable and responsible mining practices.

The facility incorporates our most advanced processing technologies while respecting local environmental and cultural considerations. Our 30-month construction project included extensive community engagement, skills transfer programs, and the establishment of robust supply chain networks across the region.

Now operational, the Angola Western Site processes precious metals from multiple countries across the region, maintaining our rigorous LBMA certification standards while contributing to local economic development and environmental conservation efforts.
