Operations / Chrome

Structured participation across the chrome value chain.

Chrome is SAR's first live commodity acquisition workstream. SAR reviews concentrate, ROM and feedstock through separate grade, volume, verification and route-economics pathways.

Chrome Standards

Product type controls grade, volume threshold and route classification.

01

Chrome Concentrate

41%+ Cr₂O₃ concentrate is reviewed from a 100-tonne minimum commercial parcel with current assay, live stock proof and lawful-control documentation.

02

Chrome ROM

38%–40% Cr₂O₃ ROM is reviewed from a 100-tonne minimum commercial parcel and classified internally after SAR verification.

03

Chrome Feedstock

28%–36% Cr₂O₃ feedstock is reviewed from a 500-tonne minimum threshold, with 1,000t+ preferred for beneficiation economics.

Value Chain Participation

SAR applies verification, route economics and execution readiness before commercial commitment.

Intake

Supplier submits material type, grade, quantity, location, assay, stock evidence and lawful-control details.

Verification

SAR reviews ownership, mandate, source, chain-of-custody, loading-point control and evidence freshness.

Route Economics

SAR assesses transport, receiving point, wash-plant requirements, recovery potential, drying, staging and dispatch economics.

Execution

Approved opportunities move through controlled procurement, logistics, warehouse receiving, buyer allocation and settlement workflows.

Assay & Grade Control

Verified grade controls classification, pricing and acceptance.

Supplier assays support preliminary review only. SAR uses verification, received tonnes, route economics and written acceptance to confirm the final commercial position. Lower-than-claimed material is repriced, reclassified, rejected or held for enhanced material-control review.

SAR does not proceed with material where ownership, source, chain-of-custody, documentation or loading-point control cannot be established.
