Cobalt

Cobalt is one of the world's most strategically critical minerals — and Zambia's Lusaka holds some of the richest cobalt deposits on Earth. Somika Commodities Limited sources, processes and exports high-grade cobalt hydroxide that meets the demanding specifications of battery manufacturers, industrial chemical companies and healthcare suppliers worldwide.

Derivatives of cobalt have multi-industry applications spanning healthcare, advanced manufacturing and cutting-edge technology. Cobalt (II) Hydroxide is gaining unprecedented global importance as governments across the world accelerate the transition to electric vehicles and renewable energy storage, driving extraordinary demand for reliable, certified cobalt supply.

Our cobalt is sourced from certified, conflict-free mine sites in Zambia and processed at our facilities to achieve consistent 30–35% Co(OH)₂ purity. Every batch is independently tested and accompanied by full documentation to meet international due diligence requirements including OECD guidelines.

With Zambia's strategic position, export infrastructure and business-friendly mining code, Somika Commodities Limited offers buyers a reliable, compliant and competitive alternative to other African cobalt sources.
