Copper Cathode & Concentrate — Produced, Sourced & Delivered Globally.
The CopperFarm is a strategically assembled network of small copper mines operating across Tanganyika Province in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo. Our operations are centred around the town of Moba, situated on the western shore of Lake Tanganyika — one of Africa's most mineral-rich corridors.
We produce and source both copper cathode and copper concentrate, offering clients a flexible, reliable supply of refined and unrefined copper products. Through a network of strategic partners, we are able to satisfy demand at scale — ensuring consistent availability regardless of production cycle or volume requirement.
Our model aggregates production from multiple artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) sites into a consolidated, commercially-grade supply chain — giving international buyers the scale, consistency, and traceability they require, and giving small mine operators access to global markets they couldn't reach alone.
We are actively seeking offtake partners, trading houses, and strategic investors to support the scaling of our operations and logistics infrastructure.
Get in TouchTheCopperFarm supplies both copper cathode (Grade A, LME-registered) and copper concentrate (60% Cu grade, FOB Dar es Salaam). Concentrate is aggregated, tested, and blended at our central processing point in Moba. Cathode is sourced via our strategic partner network and delivered to buyer specification. Detailed assay certificates are available on request.
* Full assay and independent sampling reports available under NDA to qualified buyers. Penalty elements will be disclosed at LOI stage.
The CopperFarm's competitive advantage is our aggregation model. Rather than operating a single mine, we coordinate production across multiple small-scale mine sites in the Moba region — consolidating output, standardising quality control, and creating a supply volume that single artisanal operations cannot achieve independently.
Distributed mine sites across Tanganyika Province reduce single-point operational risk and smooth production continuity.
All concentrate passes through our central sampling and testing facility in Moba before shipment, ensuring consistent grade reporting.
Small mine output is aggregated into commercially-sized parcels meeting minimum smelter feed requirements for direct offtake.
Chain-of-custody documentation from mine face to port, supporting buyer compliance with conflict minerals regulations (OECD DD).
Moba sits on the western shore of Lake Tanganyika. Concentrate is transported by lake barge to Kigoma (Tanzania), then onward by rail/road to Dar es Salaam port — one of East Africa's primary export terminals for copper.
Alternative routing via road north to Kalemie, then connecting to the TAZARA railway or road freight network through Zambia to Beira or Durban. Suitable for larger consolidated shipments.
Concentrate is shipped in big bags or containerised bulk (20ft or 40ft containers). We can also accommodate bulk vessel loading at Dar es Salaam for larger offtake volumes.
The CopperFarm is committed to full regulatory compliance across export, customs, and responsible sourcing frameworks. The following are in place or in progress:
We recognise that responsible mining is not optional — it is the entry price for accessing serious buyers and long-term capital. Our ESG framework is built from the ground up in Moba.
Active environmental management plans at each mine site. Tailings containment, water management, and progressive rehabilitation protocols are mandated across the network. We are targeting The Copper Mark certification as part of our roadmap.
The CopperFarm model is inherently community-driven — we provide economic formalisation, fair pricing, and market access to small mine operators and their workers in the Moba region. We engage local government and community structures on all operational decisions.
Full chain-of-custody documentation from mine face to port. OECD Due Diligence guidance for responsible mineral supply chains from conflict-affected and high-risk areas (CAHRAs) is followed. Independent third-party audits available on request.
