Tin concentrate
Cassiterite concentrate for tin smelters, traded by the lot with assay at the loading port.
Overview
Tin concentrate is cassiterite ore that has been crushed and separated at or near the mine to raise its tin content before smelting. Grades vary widely between producers, and so do the impurities that a smelter has to manage.
We match lots to the smelter that can process them. Every counterparty goes through KYC, anti-money-laundering and sanctions checks before contract, and every lot is sampled and assayed by an independent inspection company.
