Our Business
Transamine sources and supplies non-ferrous raw materials globally. Unlike other commodities, the concentrate market is highly specialized. We know the specificity and complexity of each concentrate from any given mine as well as its attributes, mineral composition, and ore mineralogy. This knowledge is critical when selling to smelters whose capacity to process concentrates and maximize returns depends on the mineral composition, impurity content, environmental restrictions, energy costs, etc.
We are recognized as a marketing specialist by producers and consumers alike and our experienced team has often advised on start-up projects and on product blending and sourcing.
