Responsible Mining, Powering the Future

Delivering Tanzania’s finest tantalum and niobium to the global market with responsibility and precision.

ABOUT CRITICA

Critica Metals is a Tanzanian mining company specializing in the responsible extraction and production of high-value strategic minerals , including tantalum (coltan), niobium, and high-grade beryllium ore. These minerals are essential to global technology supply chains, advanced manufacturing, aerospace, and energy systems.

Through targeted exploration and fieldwork, our operations have confirmed rich, high-quality mineralization, establishing a solid resource foundation for long-term growth.

OUR MINERALS

Coltan (Tantalum- Niobium) 

Used in capacitors, advanced electronics, medical devices, and high-performance alloys. We provide responsibly sourced tantalum- Niobium concentrates that meet strict global standards. 

Beryllium Ore

Highly valued for its lightweight strength and thermal properties. Our high-grade beryllium ore supports specialized industrial, scientific, and defense-related applications.

EXPLORATION & RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT

Our exploration programs have revealed a significant, high-grade critical mineral deposit. Geological mapping, trenching, and sampling confirm continuity of mineralization and strong grades across multiple target zones.

We are now preparing to commence a core drilling program designed to:

  • Establish a compliant resource model

  • Confirm deposit size and geometry

  • Identify depth extensions and new mineralized bodies

  • Inform long-term expansion and mine planning

Initial exploration suggests substantial resource potential, positioning Critica Metals for future scalability and robust production.

 

 

MUHUKULU PROJECT

The Muhukulu Project, located in southern Tanzania, is the core of Critica Metals’ resource portfolio and a rapidly emerging critical mineral asset.

Key Strengths of the Muhukulu Project

  • Proven mineralization of tantalum, niobium, and beryllium

  • Small scale mining which was undertaken has so far produced about 5 tons of Tantalite-Niobium concentrate and 100 tons of Beryllium ore.

  • Initial results from a pit dug to mineralized zone (14m) identified by multispectral has produced a sample with 3.06% Ta , 7.68% Nb  and 0.14% W.

  • Geological indicators of a large pegmatite system with strong extension potential

  • Ease of mining due to shallow mineralization zones

  • Favourable terrain and expandable infrastructure

Current Work Underway

  • Construction of a 20 TPH pilot beneficiation plant

  • Metallurgical testwork planning

  • Bulk sampling strategy and operational scaling

  • Upcoming core drilling program to define the full resource

Muhukulu represents one of Tanzania’s most promising undeveloped critical mineral deposits, offering both strategic importance and strong long-term economic potential.

COMMUNITY & SOCIAL IMPACT

Critica Metals is committed to meaningful, long-term community development in all areas where we operate.

Our Impact Initiatives Include:

Elderly Health Insurance Program

We have launched a dedicated healthcare support initiative that currently provides free health insurance coverage to 300 elderly community members. This program ensures access to essential medical care and financial protection for some of the most vulnerable residents.

Local Infrastructure Support

We contribute to improving road access, public spaces, and essential infrastructure in surrounding communities.

Health Center Assistance

Support for upgrading local health facilities to improve care delivery and community well-being.

Sports & Youth Engagement

Sponsorship and support for local sports activities to promote community development and positive engagement.

Our community philosophy is simple:
Mining must create lasting value for the people who live closest to the resource.
