We can collect it,
and we can deliver it.
Chrome is a low-value, high-mass commodity: logistics is a large part of the deal. Because haulage sits inside the shareholder group, MGN can quote a delivered price and hold to a collection date without exposure to the spot truck market.
Domestic delivery
Boshoek sits inside South Africa's chrome and ferrochrome heartland. Smelters, upgraders and chemical processors in the Rustenburg–Brits corridor are within short road haul of the plant gate.
- Short-haul delivered pricing from our own transport
- Settlement in Rand, no foreign exchange exposure
- No export permitting or duty exposure
- Turnaround measured in days, not weeks
Containerised export
For seaborne buyers, concentrate moves in containers via the inland terminal network to Durban — protecting quality in a sealed box from stuffing to discharge.
- Road to inland terminal — own fleet to Pretoria or City Deep
- Stuffing, weighing, VGM
- Rail to Durban on the Natal corridor, pre-agreed road fallback
- Vessel to destination — independent load-port certification
For suppliers, this is the point. If you are holding ROM, middlings, fines or a tailings dump you cannot economically move, the haulage is usually the reason. Send us an assay — Cr₂O₃, Fe and SiO₂ as a minimum — and a tonnage, and we will come back with a delivered-basis and an ex-site number so you can compare them properly.
