About BixiRoad
We're transforming how Africa trades its natural treasures—building the continent's first fully verified, secure marketplace for minerals and precious stones.
Our Mission
To empower African miners with direct access to global markets while providing international buyers with guaranteed authenticity and quality. We bridge the trust gap through our physical Verification Hub, where every product is examined by certified assayers before reaching buyers.
The Problem We Solve
❌ Trust Deficit
International buyers hesitate to purchase African minerals due to concerns about authenticity, conflict sourcing, and fraudulent sellers.
❌ Market Access Barriers
African miners struggle with complex export procedures, international shipping, and finding legitimate buyers willing to pay fair prices.
❌ No Verification Standard
Existing marketplaces allow direct seller-to-buyer transactions without proper quality verification or authenticity guarantees.
The BixiRoad Solution
Physical Verification Hub
Our central facility receives every product from sellers. Certified assayers with international credentials physically examine, test purity, verify authenticity, and document quality before approval.
Mandatory Escrow Protection
All payments are held securely until buyers confirm delivery. This protects both parties: sellers get guaranteed payment, buyers get verified products or their money back.
International Logistics
We handle all export documentation, customs clearance, and international shipping. Sellers ship domestically to our hub; we handle the complex global delivery to buyers.
Compliance & Ethics
Every seller is verified with valid mining licenses. We ensure zero conflict minerals, no forced labor, and full compliance with international trade laws and ethical sourcing standards.
Our Verification Hub
Located strategically to serve pan-African operations, our state-of-the-art Verification Hub is equipped with:
- Certified Assayers: Internationally recognized gemologists and metallurgists
- Advanced Testing Equipment: XRF analyzers, spectrometers, and purity testing tools
- Secure Storage: Climate-controlled vaults for safekeeping pre and post-purchase
- Documentation Center: Generating certificates of authenticity and compliance reports
