Iron ore exporter from Cameroon — Fe grade and impurities on every offer.
Hematite iron ore in lump and fines, quoted on Fe content with SiO₂, Al₂O₃, phosphorus, sulphur and moisture stated up front — verified by an independent surveyor at the load port.
What we supply
We export hematite iron ore as lump and fines, specified on dry-basis Fe content with all penalty elements stated on the offer — so steel mills and traders can price the value-in-use before committing.
Southern and eastern Cameroon host significant iron ore deposits, served by the Kribi Deep-Sea Port. Lots are offered only once source, custody and analysis are documented.
