Metals & Mining (Critical Minerals)
BHUMI VENTURES LLC FZ
Overview
Bhumi Ventures LLC FZ, a company under the PREMIDIS Group, is an emerging Metal & Mining enterprise operating across the United Arab Emirates (Dubai and Fujairah) and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Built on the diversified legacy and strong governance framework of PREMIDIS S.A.R.L., Bhumi Ventures LLC FZ represents the Group’s strategic foray into the critical minerals and natural resources sector.
Mineral Portfolio & Asset Base
Bhumi Ventures LLC FZ is a uniquely diversified company with interests across the natural resource’s spectrum, including Copper, Cobalt, Nickel, Gold, Silver, and Platinum Group Metals. The company currently holds 4 exploitation licenses (PE) covering a total area of 296 sq. km, along with 12 exploration licenses (PR) spanning 761 sq. km, and operates an active copper mining project within one of its licensed areas. All the company’s assets are located within the highly prospective Katanga Copper Belt in the DRC, a globally significant mining region surrounded by several established and operating mines.
As a part of its phased mine development strategy, Bhumi Ventures LLC FZ has successfully commissioned a 100 TPH Heavy Media Separation (HMS) plant, marking a key operational milestone. The HMS plant enables efficient separation of valuable minerals from gangue using dense media technology based on specific gravity differences, ensuring high selectivity, efficiency, and throughput. Supporting this facility is a 250 TPH crushing circuit, designed to provide scalability and operational flexibility. The infrastructure allows for a planned Phase II expansion with an additional 150 TPH HMS module, enabling smooth ramp-up in line with future production requirements.
Sustainability Vision
Aligned with PREMIDIS’ philosophy of responsible enterprise and long-term value creation, Bhumi Ventures LLC FZ is driven by a vision to become one of the world’s leading sustainable green metal companies. The company aims to achieve 10 MMT of contained metal in R&R through an accelerated JORC-compliant exploration program across all its assets. In parallel, Bhumi Ventures LLC FZ plans to execute mine development and ore processing projects to achieve an annual production capacity of approximately 0.5 MMT of copper and associated metals.
Bhumi Ventures LLC FZ is firmly committed to the responsible and sustainable extraction of critical minerals, which are essential for powering the global transition to clean energy, electric vehicles, and advanced technologies. With a strong emphasis on ESG stewardship, technology adoption, innovation, and digitalisation, the company seeks to set new benchmarks in sustainable mining while acting as a catalyst for regional and national economic growth.
