Mining & Logistics Division
Minerals, graded and delivered.
We supply industrial minerals, metals and aggregates, and we move them. Material is graded to your specification at source and delivered to your plant or port on a schedule you can plan around.
Mining and logistics
Supply is only half the job.
A mineral contract fails on delivery far more often than it fails on geology. The material exists; getting the right grade to the right plant, on time, at a landed cost that still works, is the difficult part.
That is why the two sit in one division. We control the material from the pit through grading and loading to the point it reaches you, and one team answers for both the specification and the schedule.
What we supply
Five material groups.
Graded, assayed and documented before anything leaves the site.
-
Industrial minerals
Gypsum, limestone, dolomite, calcium carbonate, barite, feldspar, kaolin and silica sand for cement, glass, paint and chemical production.
-
Metals and ores
Copper, iron ore, nickel, manganese, chromium, zinc and lead, assayed and certified to the grade on the contract.
-
Critical minerals
Graphite, lithium, cobalt, tantalum and rare earth minerals for battery and technology supply chains.
-
Construction aggregates
Crushed stone, gravel, sand, road base, concrete and asphalt aggregates in project volumes, delivered to site.
-
Energy minerals
Thermal coal and other energy minerals, graded by calorific value for industrial use.
Operations
From pit to plant.
Logistics that survive contact with a real road
Haulage, port handling, documentation and customs are planned with the order, not arranged after it. Volumes are matched to the equipment that will actually move them and to the roads they will actually travel.
- Road haulage and bulk transport to plant or port
- Port handling, storage and vessel loading
- Export documentation, certification and customs clearance
- Scheduled delivery against production requirements
Grade you can plan production around
Material is sampled and assayed before dispatch, and every consignment ships with its documentation. If a grade cannot be met, you hear it before loading rather than on arrival.
- Sampling and assay against the contract specification
- Certificates of analysis with every consignment
- Consistent sizing and moisture control
- Traceable, responsibly sourced material

Why us
Why buy through Sabbia.
-
One party for supply and delivery
The grade and the schedule sit with the same team, so a delivery problem does not become a dispute between a supplier and a haulier.
-
Group balance sheet
Contract volumes backed by a diversified group rather than a single-commodity trader.
-
Documented quality
Assay, certification and traceability on every consignment, so your own compliance holds up.
-
Spot or contract
A single trial load or a standing quarterly commitment, on the same terms and the same paperwork.
