About Zambezi Aurum Resources

At the intersection of African mining expertise and Swiss trading precision, we are unlocking Africa's mineral wealth responsibly and transparently.

Who We Are

Pioneering responsible mining in Africa

Zambezi Aurum Resources is a Zambian junior mining and trading company focused on unlocking the value of Africa's mineral resources responsibly and transparently. We operate our own mining and exploration projects and partner with artisanal miners to ensure ethical, documented, and high-integrity gold supply at the source.

Our unique positioning combines deep-rooted African operational expertise with Swiss-precision trading and global market access. While deeply rooted in Zambia's artisanal and small-scale gold communities, our corporate DNA includes Swiss-origin networks in banking, commodity trading, and international gold logistics.

We operate across three high-potential exploration projects totaling over 11,000 hectares, maintain an active gravity processing facility, and have formalized relationships with over 100 artisanal miners through our partnership program.
