The company

A mineral company built around the cooperatives that hold the ground.

Black & Yellow Minerals develops mineral concessions in the Democratic Republic of Congo with the local cooperatives that hold them. Today that means semi-industrial gold mining in the east of the country; the model is built to grow with its partners and beyond gold. The company is registered in Kinshasa, with a Canadian corporation for international partners.

What BYM is

Equipment, supervision and buyers, added to licences that already exist.

Black & Yellow Minerals SARL is the operating entity. It works gold deposits in Tshopo, North Kivu, Ituri provinces in partnership with local cooperatives that hold the licences to mine them — and it is built to apply the same partnership to other concessions and other minerals.

The cooperatives keep their licences and their place in the operation. BYM brings the hydraulic and mechanised equipment, on-site supervision, operating standards and the commercial relationships that take gold from the sluice to a buyer.

Black & Yellow Minerals Corp., incorporated in Canada, is the vehicle through which international partners and investors engage with the company.
