TanCo Services
At TanCo, we are dedicated to sourcing and supplying high-quality raw materials such as tin, tantalum, niobium, tungsten, and lithium to our diverse portfolio of end receivers and smelters. We work throughout the South American supply chain, leveraging our market knowledge, experience, and local connections to trade continent-wide with efficiency, transparency, and minimum risk.
Our commitment to ethical and sustainable sourcing practices is reflected in our rigorous due diligence processes, which ensure that all of our materials are conflict-free and meet international standards for environmental sustainability and social responsibility.
Through our extensive network of suppliers and partners, we are able to offer a reliable and consistent supply of critical minerals to our customers, helping to support their operations and drive growth. Our focus on quality, reliability and sustainability sets us apart in the market and enables us to deliver value to both our customers and the communities where we operate.
SSM & Artisanal Focus
We operate throughout South America and source the majority of our supply from small-scale miners (SSMs) and artisanal producers. To ensure a reliable and sustainable supply chain, we have company staff and representatives strategically located in all main producing areas.
Our team is committed to ethical and sustainable sourcing practices, which is why we adhere to strict policies for sampling, sealing, analyzing, and payment. By working closely with our suppliers, we are able to purchase any amount of materials quickly and safely while also ensuring compliance with our policies and international standards.
Supply Chain Development
Mineral-rich regions of South America struggle to deliver their resources to market due to insufficient infrastructure.
​
However, at TanCo, we have developed a comprehensive understanding of all insured domestic transport options, including road, rail, and waterways. This enables us to safely transport materials from producing areas to our processing facility, and ultimately to container ports for export.
Offtake Agreement
TanCo has a broad portfolio of end receivers and smelters for tantalite, columbite, and cassiterite ores, which enables us to provide the most advantageous solutions and terms for your product's offtake agreement.
We offer various financial models, such as investment and debt structuring, in exchange for the material produced under the offtake agreement.
