Built on local relationships.
Governed by professional discipline.
TMK was established with a simple, clear purpose: to bridge the gap between hardworking local mining communities in Zamfara and Nasarawa States and serious domestic buyers who need dependable mineral supply.
We are not remote brokers operating from afar. We maintain deep generational family ties, on-the-ground presence, and a background in pharmaceutical sciences that guides how we measure, test, and handle every single transaction.
Executive Leadership
TMK is privately owned and actively managed by qualified professionals who are personally accountable for every transaction.

Pharm. Moriki brings extensive family heritage and respected community relationships across Northern and North-Central mining corridors. Combining his scientific background with generational community trust, he manages TMK’s strategic relationships with artisanal mining cooperatives across Zamfara's gold belts and Nasarawa's mineral fields ensuring consistent, ethical supply access.
Pharm. Dr. Temitope
Pharm. Dr. Temitope is a practising pharmacist and indigenous entrepreneur with deep roots in regional mineral extraction. His professional training in pharmaceutical precision and analytical measurement shaped TMK’s operational standards bringing accountability, exact chemical testing, and strict compliance to the mineral sourcing ecosystem in Zamfara and Nasarawa.
A different kind of mineral company.
Different industry. Same discipline.
When people ask why pharmacists started a solid-minerals sourcing company, our answer is simple: the core values required to succeed in pharmacy are the exact same qualities that the Nigerian mineral sector desperately needs.
In healthcare, exact measurement is a matter of life and safety. In precious minerals, precise measurement is the foundation of trust. We brought that rigorous laboratory mindset into mineral sourcing demanding verified scales, disciplined logging, and independent assay confirmation on every single gram of gold and batch of strategic ore.
We do not guess purity or rely on visual estimates. We structure our sourcing around verifiable science, clear laboratory reports, and total transparency from the pithead to your refinery.
Precision Measurement
Calibrated analytical balances used on every batch. Every fraction of a gram is accounted for and documented.
Verified Chemical Purity
Independent metallurgical testing using Fire Assay and XRF spectrometry conducted at buyer-approved licensed laboratories.
Professional Ethics & Compliance
Strict adherence to corporate governance, transparent bank transactions, and full Nigerian mining regulations.
Real mineral access cannot be found through a simple online search.
Many people claim to supply Nigerian gold and solid minerals from distant office desks, but few have ever walked into a mining pit or spoken with the miners who dig the earth every day.
In Zamfara and Nasarawa States, mineral sourcing requires being physically present. It means understanding the local Hausa and community dialects, respecting traditional leaders, and having the logistical capability to safely transport materials from rural pits to commercial hubs.
Because our team maintains an active presence at the source, we work in daily contact with local mining cooperatives. We know which pits are producing, we verify the material before it leaves the source, and we guarantee that our supply is genuine, legally sourced, and uncompromised.
No multi-tiered broker markups or false mineral claims.
Fair trade practices and long-term cooperative partnerships.
The four pillars of our company.
These foundational principles guide how we interact with miners, manage logistics, and serve our corporate buyers.
Direct Local Access
Our deep local ties in Zamfara and Nasarawa States give us genuine, face-to-face access to local mining cooperatives and artisanal pits. We source at the physical origin, cutting out intermediate broker markups.
Scientific Discipline
We bring pharmaceutical-grade precision to the solid minerals trade. Every batch is weighed on calibrated analytical scales and tested at licensed laboratories for confirmed purity.
Commercial Aggregation
We solve the biggest challenge for domestic refineries: fragmented artisanal supply. We gather and consolidate daily mining output into structured, dependable commercial volumes.
Security & Integrity
From secure domestic transport to transparent bank settlements, we operate in full compliance with the Nigerian Minerals and Mining Act, with zero parallel-market cash deals.
Trust is built at every single step of the supply chain.
In an industry often clouded by opacity and informal transactions, TMK takes a clear, uncompromising stance: we operate strictly by the law, with total commercial transparency and clean documentation.
We conduct full Know-Your-Customer (KYC) due diligence on all counterparties. We do not engage in parallel-market cash settlements, and we do not deal in unverified mineral claims. Every trade is backed by licensed assay reports and processed through legitimate banking channels.
For domestic refineries and serious buyers, this means total legal security and complete peace of mind.
Strict compliance with Federal Ministry of Solid Minerals regulations.
Comprehensive counterparty qualification on all buyers and partners.
All transactions executed transparently through verified financial institutions.
