Use discovery, RFQs and evidence together
Marketplace discovery helps identify possible counterparties, but serious mineral sourcing should also define specifications, review supporting information, document commercial terms and confirm transaction-specific legal, technical, assay, logistics and counterparty requirements.
Build a clearer route from search to transaction
GoldConnect pages are organised to move users from search intent into a practical action: browse listings, register, post an RFQ, review a supplier profile, create a Mineral Passport or progress a qualified opportunity into a private transaction workflow.
Critical minerals buyers can define technical demand clearly
International procurement teams often need more than a commodity name. GoldConnect RFQs can help structure requirements around grade, chemistry, moisture, particle size, quantity, delivery destination, inspection, assay and documentary expectations.
- Copper for smelters, traders and industrial users.
- Cobalt and lithium or spodumene for battery and processing supply chains.
- Natural graphite, manganese and chrome for industrial and strategic sourcing.
- Tin, tantalum, PGMs and rare-earth opportunities where relevant supplier participation exists.
Buyers can register, post a technical RFQ and review available supplier profiles before progressing discussions.
Critical minerals sourcing FAQ
Can GoldConnect be used for long-term offtake sourcing?
Yes. Buyers can use RFQs and supplier discovery to identify potential counterparties for spot, trial, framework or longer-term supply discussions.
Does GoldConnect verify mineral grade?
GoldConnect can organise available evidence and workflow steps, but buyers should independently confirm assay, sampling, inspection and technical suitability for each transaction.
GoldConnect provides marketplace and workflow technology. Listings, registrations, platform indicators and search visibility are not guarantees of identity, licence status, mineral ownership, quality, commercial performance or regulatory compliance. Users remain responsible for independent due diligence.
