Natural Resources
Harnessing the Earth's Most Critical Assets, Responsibly
Two of the world's most important resource imperatives converge in this division: the global race for critical minerals that power the electronics revolution, and the quiet crisis of India's 100 million marginal farmers who feed the nation but struggle to feed their families.
The Natural Resources division encompasses two distinct but equally significant sub-categories: critical mineral mining in West Africa, and modern technology-enabled agriculture in India. Together, they represent Finovest Group's commitment to building businesses that generate strong investor returns while creating genuine, lasting impact in the communities they touch.
Mining — Westhill Resources (SL) Ltd
Westhill Resources (SL) Ltd is a Sierra Leone-incorporated company headquartered in Freetown, holding licensed rights in the exploration and mining of Coltan — a naturally occurring ore that is the world's primary source of tantalum, an indispensable element in capacitors used in smartphones, laptops, electric vehicles, medical devices, and advanced defence systems.
Licensed Coltan Mining
Active mining licences in Sierra Leone for the exploration and extraction of Coltan ore, operated to OECD conflict-free mineral standards.
Mineral Trading
In addition to own-mine production, Westhill Resources procures and trades minerals sourced from other licensed mines in Sierra Leone — extending its supply chain role.
Equipment Leasing
Leasing of mining and exploration equipment to smaller and mid-sized operators in the region — generating recurring income and supporting the broader sector.
Global Supply Chain
Supplying refined Coltan and minerals to international processing facilities and electronics manufacturers in Asia, Europe, and North America.
THE CRITICAL MINERALS OPPORTUNITY
Coltan and tantalum are classified as critical and strategic minerals by the US, EU, and major Asian economies. Westhill Resources' established licences and local relationships create a compelling, first-mover platform in an asset class of growing global strategic importance.
