Our journey started more than a decade ago

  • 2007

    First consulting for structured financing and operational set up done for His Excellency Kennth D. Kaunda.

  • 2009

    Together with private equity investors from Arizona, USA created manganese mining operations in the Luapula province of Zambia which continued till 2013. During the same period, we diversified our product portfolio into, mainly, spot trades of copper ores and cathodes. 

  • 2013

    From the experiences in manganese mining and understanding the challenges of small-scale mining operations, we began developing a concept designed especially for the support of artisanal and small-scale miners. A concept we chose to call The Community Consolidation Concept – The C C C.

  • 2014

    Operating from Europe we focused on the established sales channels in Europe and Asia, understanding their requirements, concerns, and financing options.

  • 2018

    The CCC was defined and the establishment of necessary administrative, operational, and financial framework begun.

  • 2019

    The second company was set up in Zambia, to ensure transparency for the stakeholders in the CCC and the first members were welcomed onboard.

  • 2020

    First experiences were made within commodities such as copper, cobalt, maize and groundnuts, allowing for first adjustments of procedures, educational programs, and logistical handling.

  • 2021

    SYNTRICOR was established in DR Congo and first mining members were on-boarded. A process which is ongoing with about 2 – 6 new mines applying per month.

In Zambia the groundwork has been done for an extended roll-out to the small-scale miners and for the first time the offering of the full-scale program to the small holder farmers.
