As an industry leader in base metal concentrate blending, Ocean Partners can offer miners and smelters customised solutions to meet their own specific requirements.

Concentrates from different mines can be combined to produce consistent blends that best suit the technical requirements of an individual smelter.

Blending solutions offered by Ocean Partners enable miners to optimize payments for metals contained in concentrates and minimise any penalty payments associated with deleterious elements. Including complex materials in blends may enable them to be sold into markets where they wouldn’t otherwise be accepted.

The operating practices at Ocean Partners blending facilities have gained widespread acceptance amongst Asian smelting customers.

Blending services can be offered on an agency, toll or ‘purchase and sale’ basis according to customer requirements.

Warehouse services offered by Ocean Partners enable mines and smelters to optimize their production schedules and are often offered in association with creative finance packages intended to minimise working capital requirements.
