The most trusted custodian of African precious metals.
— Our Services
The full chain, run by one company. From the seam to the buyer's door.
— The Process
Three steps. One signature. The seal never breaks between them.

Step 01
We control the ground. Doré is sealed at the mine, weighed, and signed by the site manager.

Step 02
Tested in our laboratory against international standards. Stored allocated and segregated. Never co-mingled.

Step 03
Sold direct to qualified buyers. Sealed transport from our vault to your hand. The seal stays intact.

One client. Two principals. The people closest to the chain, speaking plainly.
"We evaluated three suppliers over six months. Al Areen was the only one that came with a full documentation package on first contact — concession records, assay certificates, and chain-of-custody logs going back to the mine. That is what a serious buyer needs."

"Every bar I sign carries a certificate I would stake my professional reputation on. Fire assay to four decimal places, cross-checked by ICP. The number on that certificate is the truth."

"Our chain-of-custody documentation is written to survive an OECD due diligence audit — not to pass a cursory review. Every transfer point, every seal number, every signature is on record."
