About
About NZ Mineral Trading Company
A precious-metals trading company based in Kenya, working with gold and silver supply from East and Central Africa for qualified international buyers.
Who we are
NZ Mineral Trading Company operates from Kenya, with sourcing relationships extending across East and Central Africa, including Kenya, Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.
Our work is connecting that supply with international buyers: establishing what is available, confirming how it will be verified, assembling the documentation the destination requires and coordinating delivery under agreed terms.
We describe what we do and what can be evidenced for a given transaction. Where information cannot be established to a standard appropriate for the transaction, we say so.
How we work
- Defined enquiries
- A transaction begins with a stated product form, purity, quantity and destination.
- Verification first
- Method, party, location and acceptable result are agreed before commitment.
- Documentation discipline
- Records applicable to the product and destination are assembled during due diligence.
- Direct communication
- Buyers deal with the trading team throughout, by email, phone or WhatsApp.
- Conservative claims
- We do not publish prices, stock levels or guarantees of availability.
- Both metals
- Gold and silver requirements are handled under the same commercial discipline.
Markets
African supply, international demand
Africa is a significant source of the world's gold, much of it moving through regional trading centres before reaching refiners and buyers elsewhere.
Our objective is to make that route navigable for buyers who require verification and documentation appropriate to the transaction, rather than assurances.
Standards
Verification and due diligence
Precious metals are valuable because their characteristics can be measured. Every transaction we work on is built on that principle and on knowing the counterparties involved.
Compliance is part of how a transaction is constructed, not a formality attached to the end of it.
