How we work

A clear, documented path from mine to delivery.

  1. Enquiry and specification. You tell us the material, grade, volume and destination.
  2. Sourcing and verification. We source from vetted producers and verify origin and documentation.
  3. Independent testing. Sampling and assay by an independent laboratory before shipment.
  4. Contract and payment. Written agreement with defined delivery terms, and secure payment mechanisms.
  5. Logistics and delivery. Export, transport and handover under agreed Incoterms, with full paperwork.

Compliance and responsible sourcing

Banks, buyers and partners need to know exactly where material comes from. We build that into every transaction.

Supply chain due diligence

Risk-based checks aligned with the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for minerals from conflict-affected and high-risk areas.

Traceability

Origin, transport and ownership documents kept for each lot and available to counterparties on request.

KYC and AML

Counterparty screening, sanctions checks and transparent beneficial ownership.

Documentation

Contracts, assay certificates, export permits and shipping documents prepared to banking standards.

ITSCI programme

Dahal Minerals was accredited under the ITSCI traceability programme in 2023 and participated until 2025. Re-accreditation is currently in progress, with membership expected in early 2027. Until it is confirmed, we do not present ourselves as a current ITSCI member.
