From the source.
Straight to you.
We connect serious mineral buyers and domestic refineries directly with verified local miners across Zamfara and Nasarawa States. No middlemen, no stories just genuine mineral supply, delivered safely to your facility for testing before you pay.
What you gain by working with TMK.
Sourcing minerals in Nigeria can be risky and confusing when dealing with unverified brokers. We make the entire process direct, safe, and transparent.
Direct Access to Miners
Our leadership maintains deep local presence across Zamfara and Nasarawa States. We work face-to-face with local mining cooperatives, so you receive genuine minerals straight from the pits without speculative middlemen.
Reliable Supply in Volume
Artisanal miners extract in small daily amounts. We gather, catalog, and combine these supplies into steady, commercially useful batches ready for your processing needs.
One Professional Partner
You do not have to navigate rural communities or manage chaotic informal networks. You deal with one registered Nigerian corporate partner that takes full responsibility.
No Risk, Test-First Delivery
We bring the material directly to your licensed testing facility both locally and internationally. You test the purity with your own laboratory team before releasing payment.
Our Roots & Sourcing Corridors.
Real relationships built across Zamfara and Nasarawa.
In the mineral trade, you cannot simply make a few phone calls from an office in another state and expect to find reliable supply. Real access requires being physically present, speaking the language, and earning the trust of the local people over many years.
Across Zamfara State's primary gold corridors (such as Anka, Maru, and Bukkuyum) and Nasarawa State's premier lithium and pegmatite belts, we sit down with community elders and artisanal mining cooperatives. They know who we are, and we treat them with respect and fair business practices.
Because we are on the ground where the gold, lithium, and strategic minerals are extracted, we inspect the material as soon as it comes out of the earth. We check it on-site and gather it securely giving our buyers pure, unadulterated supply every time.
The minerals we source.
We focus on what we know best and where we have direct, verified access to local miners.
Raw Gold
Primary SourcingOur primary daily operation in Zamfara State. We source genuine raw gold nuggets, dust, and unrefined doré bars from artisanal mining networks, gather them into reliable commercial batches, and deliver them directly to your refinery or facility for testing.
Lithium Ore
Expanding SourcingA rapidly growing area of our business anchored in Nasarawa State and regional pegmatite belts containing rich hard-rock formations. We structure direct supply channels with local mining cooperatives to supply bulk lithium ore for industrial processors.
Other Strategic Minerals
On-Demand SourcingOur sourcing corridors across Zamfara and Nasarawa contain documented occurrences of tantalite, columbite, and lead-zinc. If you are looking for specific solid minerals, we can utilize our ground network to inspect, verify, and source them on request.
How we work together.
A simple, 5-step process designed to make sourcing transparent, safe, and reliable for you.
Sourcing at the Pits
We work directly with artisanal mining cooperatives across Zamfara and Nasarawa States to inspect and acquire raw material at the source.
Gathering & Batching
We combine daily artisanal supplies into structured commercial batches, weighing and logging every single gram.
Secure Transportation
We coordinate safe transit from our regional aggregation hubs to your agreed facility, both locally and internationally.
Testing in Your Lab
Your laboratory team performs Fire Assay or XRF testing to independently verify the exact purity and weight.
Fair Settlement
Payment is released strictly after your laboratory is completely satisfied with the verified metal content.
Full Traceability & Clean Commercial Process
No parallel cash deals all settlements are handled through formal bank channels.
DELIVER.
TEST.
PAY.
We believe trust is proven through transparent actions, not promises. Sourcing raw minerals should never involve sending money into the unknown.
When you purchase from TMK, we do not request advance clearance fees, customs deposits, or upfront funds. We transport the material directly to your licensed refinery or testing bay in Nigeria.
Your own laboratory technicians weigh the batch and test its exact purity using Fire Assay or XRF spectrometry. You only pay for the verified pure metal content, right after testing is completed.
Delivery direct to your agreed facility, both locally and internationally.
Your staff conducts the weighing and metallurgical assaying.
Commercial settlement is executed strictly against confirmed value.
A leadership team grounded in
integrity and scientific discipline.
TMK is led by practising pharmacists with deep local roots across Northern and North-Central mining corridors. While pharmaceuticals and mineral mining are different industries, they share the exact same core requirements: careful measurement, chemical purity, and strict ethical standards.
We founded TMK to bring professional reliability to mineral sourcing in Nigeria. When you speak to us, you are talking directly with principled founders who personally oversee sourcing trips, supervise community relationships, and ensure every batch meets your exact requirements.
