Our Commitment

Responsible Mineral Sourcing

Africa is home to some of the world's richest mineral resources. Prime Ledger Group's Ethical Mineral Mandate exists to ensure these resources are developed and traded with the highest standards of integrity, environmental stewardship, and respect for human rights.

We work with mining companies, traders, governments, and investors to establish and enforce responsible sourcing frameworks aligned to international standards including the OECD Due Diligence Guidance, the Kimberley Process, and the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights.
