Our Business Model

ZAL Trading LLC is actively engaging with Development Finance Institutions (DFIs) across the US and allied nations. We partner with institutional investors, DFIs, and strategic co-investors to structure and close financing across the full mining lifecycle—from early-stage exploration through to production-stage operations.

ZAL Trading LLC is a Houston, Texas-registered critical minerals company built to create a multi-country African minerals platform aligned with US and allied strategic supply chain priorities. We are currently securing and advancing a robust portfolio of assets across Southern, West, and East Africa—spanning rare earth elements and other critical minerals that are central to the US Minerals Security Partnership (MSP) agenda and allied nations’ strategic objectives.
