What we trade - minerals

Strategic minerals, at source

Why counterparties stay

Fair dealing is the strategy

Producers are tired of being squeezed on price by counterparties who never take risk. Our model is deliberately different: transparent economics, honest grading, and long-term supply relationships - because a mine that trusts its buyer ships again next month. That is how we grow.

On the ground

We know the ground, because we are on it

Our mining company has people and presence in Zimbabwe. We are actively growing our own mining rights and work in joint venture with established mines - so we see grades, licences and documentation first-hand. That means honest grading and cargo that shows up as contracted.

The Group

Two companies. One chain from mine to market.

Forest Castle Group brings together two sister companies under common ownership: a mining company on the ground in Zimbabwe and a trading company in Singapore. Together they cover every step from the ground to the end user.

Mining

Forest Castle Mining (Private) Limited

Harare, Zimbabwe

Our mining company, with people and presence on the ground in Zimbabwe. It is actively growing its own portfolio of mining rights and works in joint venture with established mines, covering exploration, extraction, processing and export under Zimbabwean law.

Deliver

Forest Castle Group

To mills, smelters, refineries and industrial consumers across India, Asia and the Gulf.

Alongside our own supply, we buy from verified third-party producers across Southern Africa, on the same terms and the same checks.

What we do

Trade. Place. Verify.

01

We Trade

Our core business. We buy from verified producers, take title to the cargo, and sell to industrial consumers and trading houses - refineries, mills and smelters. We carry the documentary, quality and performance risk, and we earn the difference between what we pay and what we are paid, not a commission.

02

We Place

We take our own cargo to market across India, Asia and the Gulf, priced against recognised indices - LME, Fastmarkets and CRU - with export through the Beira and Durban corridors and documents through banks.

03

We Verify

Assay, licence and counterparty checks before we commit to a position. We take title at source only once grade and documentation stand up.

How a deal runs

01

Enquiry

Tell us what you are buying or selling - commodity, grade, volume, destination.

02

Verification

Assay reports, licences and counterparty checks before anything is committed.

03

Contract

Clear terms priced against recognised indices, inspection agreed up front.

04

Delivery

Export via Beira or Durban, documents through banks, settlement on terms.

Shipping

Two corridors. Every ocean.

Cargo leaves Africa through Beira and Durban and sails for India, Asia and the Gulf. Documents move through banks, inspection travels with the shipment, and both sides always know where their tonnes are.

About

Singapore trading, Zimbabwe mining

Forest Castle Group trades from Singapore, Asia's commodity trading and trade finance hub, at the natural crossroads between African supply and the buyers of India, Asia and the Gulf. Our sister company, Forest Castle Mining, is on the ground in Zimbabwe, growing its own mining rights and working in joint venture with established mines.

We are deliberately small, senior and hands-on. Every transaction is run by a principal, not passed down a desk.
