WHAT CAMOTTO DOES
A credible bridge between mineral supply and qualified demand.
We bring commercial discipline to mineral opportunities—starting with who is involved, where the material comes from, what the evidence supports and what the buyer actually needs.
Camotto sources and trades minerals, coordinates due diligence and introduces commercial principals. Every opportunity remains subject to current independent legal, geological, laboratory, regulatory and commercial verification. Clear limits protect the seller, the buyer and the integrity of the transaction.
IMPORTANT MINERALS
Gold and copper at the center of our trading focus.
Camotto evaluates opportunities against source credibility, product evidence, buyer specifications and a transaction path that can stand up to review.
Commodity availability and specifications vary by assignment. No listing on this site is an offer, a reserve statement or a guarantee of grade, quantity or delivery.

FIELD & PRODUCT EVIDENCE
Real mineral stock. Real relationships on the ground.
This gallery uses field and product images supplied by Camotto—not stock-library photography. It documents physical material, source visits and the local relationships behind our mineral sourcing work.
We work with local miners and source representatives to understand where material is held, how it is handled and what evidence is available before introducing it to a qualified buyer.

Images document material and relationships encountered through Camotto's sourcing activity. They are not a current offer or, by themselves, proof of mineral identity, grade, ownership, lawful source, available quantity or delivery. Each lot remains subject to current document review, representative sampling, independent assay and counterparty verification.
CORE SERVICES
Four disciplines. One trade-ready file.
Each engagement is designed to answer a practical question: can the parties responsibly move from a mineral claim to a controlled commercial transaction?
01Mineral Sourcing & Trading
We connect qualified demand with credible mineral supply and keep every introduction grounded in evidence.
- Gold, copper and other important mineral requirements
- Supplier identity, authority and source-document review
- Buyer mandate, specifications and commercial-fit screening
- Protected introductions and disciplined trade coordination
02Mine Due Diligence
We organize field and documentary checks so a promising lead can become a decision-ready opportunity.
- Corporate identity, beneficial ownership and seller mandate
- Permit scope, coordinates, status and authority to produce and sell
- Qualified geologist, engineer, laboratory and counsel coordination
- Risk notes that distinguish a prospect from saleable material
03Supply Chain & QA/QC
From sampling through delivery, we coordinate the controls needed to keep product identity and transaction records intact.
- Stockpile review, geotagged evidence and sampling controls
- Sealed samples, chain of custody and independent laboratory work
- Assay, moisture, penalty-element, weight and document review
- Buyer specifications, logistics, shipment and payment controls
04Mineral Assaying
We coordinate independent mineral analysis from representative sample through a defensible assay report.
- Precious-metals fire assay and multi-element analysis coordination
- ICP-OES, AAS, XRF and appropriate method selection with qualified laboratories
- Sample preparation, seals, chain of custody and umpire-sample controls
- Laboratory report review against buyer specifications and transaction terms
MINERAL ASSAYING
Evidence that travels with the sample—and the transaction.
Camotto coordinates representative sampling and independent laboratory analysis so mineral grade, composition and relevant penalty elements can be assessed against the buyer's specification.
The analytical method is selected for the commodity, expected concentration and commercial question. Work may include precious-metals fire assay, multi-element mineral analysis and instrumental techniques such as ICP-OES, AAS, XRF or UV-VIS through qualified third-party laboratories.
Precious metals
Fire-assay and appropriate finish coordination for gold, silver and precious-metal-bearing material.
Mineral analysis
Major, minor and trace-element analysis using a method suited to the sample matrix and expected tenor.
Buyer specifications
Review of grade, moisture, deleterious or penalty elements and other agreed acceptance criteria.
- 01 · PlanDefine the lot, sampling protocol, analytes, method and reporting units.
- 02 · SecurePrepare, seal and identify samples with documented chain of custody.
- 03 · AnalyzeSubmit to the selected independent laboratory with agreed QA/QC controls.
- 04 · ReconcileReview the report, exceptions and any umpire testing against the trade terms.
Camotto coordinates the assaying workflow; laboratory work is performed by qualified independent providers selected for each assignment. Method, accreditation scope, turnaround time and reporting limits are confirmed before submission. The laboratory imagery is representative and does not imply ownership of the pictured facility or equipment.

MINING-SITE FOOTPRINT
Grounded in two important Mindanao mineral regions.
Our mining-site focus covers Region XIII—CARAGA—and Region XII—SOCCSKSARGEN, connecting field evidence with offices in Muntinlupa and Makati.
CARAGA
Field research and sourcing across a region with established gold, copper, nickel and other mineral activity.
SOCCSKSARGEN
Site relationships and opportunity review across South Central Mindanao, subject to assignment-specific verification.
Philippine trade corridor
Commercial coordination through Metro Manila offices, laboratories, logistics providers and qualified buyers.
CONTROLLED PROCESS
Eight gates from requirement to settlement.
A lead advances when the evidence and counterparties support the next step. Material conflicts in identity, source, authority or assay stop the process for review.
- 01
Requirement
Define the commodity, specification, volume, destination and commercial mandate.
- 02
Source
Record the supplier, location, product claim and available evidence.
- 03
Authority
Confirm identity, representation, permits and lawful authority to sell.
- 04
Product
Review stockpile, sampling, assay, quantity and traceability.
- 05
Counterparty
Screen the buyer or seller, decision-makers and transaction capacity.
- 06
Terms
Protect disclosure and align price basis, inspection, delivery and payment.
- 07
Logistics
Coordinate documentation, movement, weighing and shipment controls.
- 08
Settlement
Close against agreed records, cleared funds and documented obligations.
Our operating rule
A strong commercial opportunity begins with a lawful source, defensible product evidence and counterparties authorized to transact.
VERIFICATION DEPTH
What goes into a defensible mineral trade.
We organize an indexed review file that separates verified facts from open items and identifies who must independently confirm each next point.
Counterparties
Registration, beneficial owners, authorized representative, mandate and capacity
Mineral authority
Agreement or permit, registered holder, approved area, commodity, validity and status
Product
Lawful source, stockpile, quantity, assay, moisture, penalty elements and production records
Sampling
Method, sample identity, seals, chain of custody, laboratory and umpire-sample controls
Commercial terms
Specifications, price basis, delivery point, inspection, rejection, payment and commission
Movement
Transport authority, weight, insurance, export or domestic documents, delivery and settlement records
TRADE, CLEARLY DEFINED
The right counterparties. The right evidence. The right controls.
We manage disclosure so credible sellers and qualified buyers can assess an opportunity without exposing sensitive information too early.
FOR SELLERS & AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES
Prepare a buyer-ready evidence package.
- Corporate identity and authority to represent the legal seller
- Verified mineral source, permit and stockpile records
- Independent assay, quantity, logistics and target terms
- An anonymized brief before controlled buyer disclosure
FOR BUYERS & OFFTAKERS
Receive researched supply—not anonymous promises.
- Define product, grade, penalty elements, quantity and destination
- Complete company, mandate and financial-capacity screening
- Review the controlled dossier under confidentiality
- Arrange independent inspection, sampling and contract review
