Seamless Iron Ore Transaction from Mine to End-Buyer in China

Challenge: Rasita Mining, a reputable mine, had a significant stockpile of high-grade iron ore but lacked direct international sales channels and risk management capabilities to deal with Chinese buyers. The Chinese buyer was creditworthy but required secure payment methods and guarantees on product quality and delivery schedules. Solution: Our company acted as a key intermediary to build a safe and efficient trade flow. Strategic Sourcing: We signed a firm Purchase Agreement with Rasita Mining, providing guaranteed offtake and clear payment terms. Secure Payment & Risk Mitigation: We negotiated a sales contract with the end-buyer in China based on a Letter of Credit (LC). The buyer's bank issued an irrevocable LC in our favor, eliminating payment risk.
