About
A minerals business built on stable ground.
SIVUNO Minerals is a modern, professionally run minerals supply business grounded in Zimbabwe's geology and built for long-term, reliable industrial partnerships.
Our story
Zimbabwean deposits, supplied to modern industry.
The name SIVUNO means getting the results — the rewards — of hard work. That meaning is at the heart of what we do: our minerals are supplied to help industry and agriculture turn disciplined effort into fruitful results.
SIVUNO Minerals is a Harare-based supply business working Zimbabwean deposits: limestone and dolomite from the Midlands and Mashonaland carbonate belts, and kaolin and ball clay from Mutoko and Matabeleland.
We bring those materials to market properly — sampled at source, graded to the buyer's specification, packed in bags or bulk, and delivered on a schedule agreed in advance. Our customers are fertiliser blenders, stockfeed formulators, ceramic manufacturers, coatings producers and agricultural distributors in Zimbabwe, with contract supply into Zambia, Mozambique and Botswana.
Our minerals are true to the name: they are the result of disciplined sourcing, careful handling and dependable delivery. They help crops grow, strengthen ceramic and specialty production, and keep agricultural and industrial operations moving — turning hard work into fruitful results for the customers and communities we serve.

Principles
How we operate
Reliability of supply
Contracted volumes are planned against held stock and a scheduled dispatch calendar rather than the order book. Where a buyer's plant or planting window is fixed, loading dates are agreed up front and haulage is booked to match.
Quality consistency
Material is sampled from the intended source before a contract is signed, and characterised again per lot. Chemistry, sizing and moisture are stated on dispatch so the tenth consignment behaves like the first.
Safety and lawful operation
Loading, handling and haulage run to documented safe-working procedures with dust control and PPE at every site. We work only with mining and milling partners whose licensing and statutory compliance we have verified.
Long-term partnership
We prefer multi-year supply relationships to spot trading, and we plan capacity around the buyers we already serve. Technical questions are answered by the people who arranged the consignment, not a call centre.
