About Us
Reliable African Supply. Structured for Global Trade.
Element Mining Africa is a specialist sourcing and trading platform for African-origin ores and metals. We work with established producers across South Africa, Zimbabwe, Namibia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo to deliver consistent quality, transparent documentation, and reliable logistics into global markets.
Operating as a trading and supply intermediary - not a mine operator - we structure efficient, compliant cross-border transactions that connect African mineral supply with international industrial buyers.
Our Story
Built on 30 years of mining relationships.
Designed for the future of global metals trade.
Element Mining Africa is a next-generation metals and minerals platform built on more than three decades of mining industry relationships. The company was spun out of Full Love Group, a long-standing mining supply and trading network with deep partnerships across Southern Africa. Backed by this legacy, Element Mining Africa connects African mineral producers with global industrial markets through modern systems, responsible partnerships, and long-term supply strategies.
A Legacy Built on Relationships
Element Mining Africa originates from the operations of Full Love Group, a family-led business with over 30 years of experience working alongside mines, suppliers, and traditional authorities across Southern Africa.
Roots in Limpopo
The foundation of these relationships began in the mining regions of Limpopo, where our founder spent extensive time on the ground working with local leadership to secure mining rights and develop supply partnerships. Her persistence, respect for local institutions, and long-term commitment established a trusted network that continues to support our operations today.
Spinning Out the Next Generation
Element Mining Africa was created as the second-generation evolution of this legacy. While continuing to draw on the experience, relationships, and operational backing of Full Love Group, the company was established to build a more modern platform for African-origin metals.
Our focus is to combine decades of mining partnerships with new capabilities in technology, logistics, and global trade to better connect African mineral supply with international markets.
B-BBEE and Shared Growth
As a B-BBEE compliant South African company, Element Mining Africa supports national goals to expand participation in the mining sector and responsibly develop the region’s mineral resources.
By partnering with local stakeholders, black-owned suppliers, and project operators, we help unlock Southern Africa’s mineral potential while contributing to a more inclusive and sustainable mining economy.
Technology, Transparency, and the Future of Mining
As the second generation of the business, we are focused on modernizing how mineral supply chains operate. By integrating digital tools and data-driven systems, Element Mining Africa aims to improve transparency, traceability, and operational efficiency across the entire supply chain—from mine to end buyer.
This technology-driven approach strengthens trust between producers, partners, and global customers while positioning African mineral supply for the next generation of international trade.
Our Approach
Relationship-driven, discreet, professional
We prioritise long-term, trust-based relationships over short-term transactions. Our team operates with a low public profile, focusing on structured engagements with serious buyers, clear documentation and compliance with relevant regulations in South Africa and destination markets.
