Copper cathode supply is currently available through Thiam Investment Group, representing an identified seller. We are inviting qualified buyers and procurement teams to review the mandate below, complete our qualification process, and respond directly.
How It Works
Verification
Every counterparty — buyer or seller — is verified directly before an introduction is made. We'll walk you through exactly what's needed once we're in touch.
Specification & Terms
Volume, quality specification, pricing, and delivery terms are confirmed and documented before we move forward.
Introduction
Once both sides are verified and terms are aligned, we make a direct introduction — no unnecessary intermediaries.
Ongoing Support
We stay involved through documentation, logistics coordination, and follow-up to help the deal close smoothly.
Verification & Documentation
Copper cathode transactions attract a disproportionate amount of fraudulent activity internationally, and TIG's process for this mandate is built around that reality. No commercial documentation, pricing, or seller information is shared before a prospective buyer has completed TIG's standard KYC and buyer-verification process. Once verification is complete, an NCNDA is put in place between the parties before further details are exchanged.
This sequencing is designed to protect against the advance-fee and fabricated-document patterns common in this market — it does not eliminate all transaction risk, and buyers are encouraged to conduct their own independent due diligence in parallel with TIG's process.
Independent Inspection
Independent inspection — through SGS or another mutually accepted inspector — is accepted as part of this mandate's transaction framework. As with documentation, this means inspection terms are agreed upon and built into the process; it is not a claim that inspection of a specific shipment has already taken place. Buyers are encouraged to confirm inspection arrangements directly as part of their own qualification of the transaction.
Grade & Purity Context
Buyers in the copper cathode market commonly reference "Grade A" or LME-equivalent specifications, generally understood as a minimum of 99.99% copper content meeting London Metal Exchange (LME) brand and dimensional standards. This is general industry terminology, not a specification confirmed for this particular mandate — grade and purity details for this supply are confirmed directly with the seller during the qualification process, and TIG does not state a specific grade or LME status here until that confirmation is in place.
Buyers are encouraged to request current grade documentation as part of standard due diligence on any copper cathode transaction, not only this one.
Buyer Qualification
To be considered for this mandate, a buyer should be able to establish:
- Verifiable corporate identity and relevant trading history
- Authority to transact on behalf of the buying entity
- A clear indication of intended purchase volume
- Financial and operational capacity to complete a transaction of this nature
TIG's standard KYC process applies before further commercial details, including grade and origin specifics, are shared.
How TIG Handles Inquiries
Inquiries are reviewed on receipt. Buyers who meet TIG's initial qualification criteria are asked to complete a KYC process, after which an NCNDA is put in place between the buyer and TIG. Once these steps are complete, further commercial details — including specification, indicative pricing, and inspection arrangements — are shared directly, and the transaction progresses toward formal commercial alignment between the buyer and the seller TIG represents.
