Critical Minerals Exploration
Precision from the first survey
End-to-end geological exploration services covering airborne and ground geophysics, soil sampling, drill programme design, resource estimation, and feasibility studies. We apply modern data science to Africa's most prospective mineral belts to de-risk exploration and maximise discovery probability.
What we deliver
- Airborne & ground geophysics
- Geological mapping & sampling
- Drill programme management
- JORC / NI 43-101 resource reports
- Feasibility & pre-feasibility studies
Mining & Extraction
Safe, efficient, responsible
Responsible open-pit and underground mining operations targeting critical minerals including lithium, cobalt, nickel, manganese, and copper. Our mining teams integrate environmental management systems from day one, ensuring community engagement and minimal ecological footprint throughout the extraction lifecycle.
What we deliver
- Open-pit & underground operations
- Mine planning & scheduling
- Environmental management plans
- Community liaison & ESG reporting
- Health, safety & compliance
Refining & Processing
Ore to battery-grade output
Advanced hydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical processing services that transform raw mineral concentrates into high-purity, battery-grade materials meeting global OEM specifications. By keeping refining on the African continent, we help clients capture higher margins and shorten complex supply chains.
What we deliver
- Hydrometallurgy & SX/EW
- Pyrometallurgical smelting
- Electrorefining & electrolysis
- Battery-grade purity certification
- Off-take agreement structuring
Recycling & Recovery
The circular loop, closed
Comprehensive lithium-ion battery recycling services from collection logistics through to black mass production and critical mineral recovery. Our zero-waste target process recovers lithium, cobalt, nickel, and manganese at >95% efficiency, creating high-value secondary material streams for battery manufacturers.
What we deliver
- Li-ion battery collection networks
- Pre-treatment & discharge
- Black mass production
- Critical mineral recovery (Li, Co, Ni, Mn)
- Secondary material offtake
Deep-Sea Mining
The new mineral frontier
Frontier exploration and feasibility services for polymetallic nodule and seafloor massive sulphide (SMS) deposits in Africa's exclusive economic zones and international waters. GramOne provides bathymetric mapping, sample analysis, environmental impact baseline studies, and operational planning for deep-sea mineral projects.
What we deliver
- Bathymetric & seafloor mapping
- Polymetallic nodule sampling
- SMS deposit characterisation
- Environmental baseline studies
- Operational & regulatory strategy
Supply Chain Solutions
From mine gate to end user
Integrated critical minerals supply chain services including offtake structuring, logistics optimisation, provenance tracking using RFID and blockchain-backed documentation, and export compliance. We connect African mineral producers directly with battery manufacturers, EV companies, and energy storage developers globally.
What we deliver
- Offtake agreement negotiation
- Export documentation & compliance
- RFID provenance tracking
- Freight & logistics management
- Buyer-seller matchmaking
ESG & Sustainability Advisory
Compliance without compromise
Strategic ESG advisory for mining companies, investors, and governments seeking to align with international sustainability frameworks. Our team provides gap analysis against UN SDGs, GRI, ICMM, and EU Critical Raw Materials Act requirements, alongside community development programme design and independent ESG auditing.
What we deliver
- UN SDG & GRI alignment
- ICMM compliance assessment
- Community development programmes
- Carbon footprint measurement
- Independent ESG auditing
Our Approach
Built on precision. Driven by purpose.
Every GramOne engagement begins with a deep understanding of your specific challenge, whether that is unlocking a new mineral deposit, decarbonising a refinery, or building a circular supply chain from scratch.
Discover
We start by listening. Understanding your project scope, commercial objectives, and operating context so we can identify the right path forward.
Assess
A thorough technical and commercial assessment of your project. We evaluate geology, infrastructure, regulatory landscape, and ESG risk from every angle.
Design
Our specialists co-design a tailored solution aligned with your timeline, budget, and sustainability commitments. No template approaches here.
Execute
We deploy integrated teams with geologists, engineers, traders, and ESG advisors working shoulder-to-shoulder to deliver measurable results.
Optimise
Post-delivery, we stay close. Continuous performance reviews, process improvements, and adaptive strategies ensure long-term value creation.
Our Commitment
Responsible mining starts with accountability
Every operation we undertake is measured against real impact. Community livelihoods, environmental stewardship, and transparent governance are not checkboxes for us. They are the foundation of how we work. When we say Africa-first, we mean the people, the land, and the future of this continent come before short-term gains.
