Plural Consulting and Mining holds mineral licences across Sierra Leone, The Gambia, and Nigeria. We are actively seeking investors and equipment partners to help us scale operations and meet global mining standards together.
Founded in 2022, Plural Consulting and Mining is a growing West African mining and consultancy firm headquartered in Sierra Leone with operations extending into The Gambia and Nigeria. We hold mineral licences, possess deep local and regulatory knowledge, and are actively seeking equipment investors and joint-venture partners to help us scale to international production standards.
We hold active prospecting and mining licences across Sierra Leone, The Gambia, and Nigeria. All are fully compliant with each country's mineral regulatory framework and ready for operational scale-up.
We are a capable team with strong ground knowledge but limited heavy equipment. We welcome JV partners, equipment financiers, and investors who want exposure to West Africa's mineral wealth with a trusted local operator.
Years of work in Sierra Leone, Gambia, and Nigerian communities mean our partners inherit trusted local relationships, reducing the risk and friction that comes with entering new territories alone.
These are real minerals recovered from our current small-scale operations in West Africa. A tangible proof of what already comes out of the ground. With the right equipment partner, this output scales significantly.
All products displayed here are available for purchase.
What this means for a partner: The geology is proven. Gold and other solid minerals are already coming out of the ground. What is needed is the equipment to do this at volume, consistency, and to international purity standards. That is the opportunity we are offering.

What we currently lack is the heavy equipment needed to move from small-scale activity to mechanised, export-grade production. We are looking for investors and equipment partners willing to co-invest through equipment provision, equipment leasing arrangements, or joint-venture structures, in exchange for a fair share of the revenues we generate together.
