Description
High-Purity Coltan (Tantalum Ore) – Premium Tanzanian Coltan: High-Purity Tantalum for High-Tech Industry
In the race toward miniaturization and high-performance engineering, tantalum is an irreplaceable element. GROUPE LUANO SARL provides a stable, ethical supply of Tanzanian Coltan, processed to ensure superior capacitance and thermal resilience.
From the capacitors in 5G smartphones to the super-alloys in jet turbines, our tantalum concentrates offer the chemical consistency and traceability required by today’s most regulated B2B sectors.
Technical Specifications: Electronics & Aerospace Grade
Using a combination of gravity separation and electrostatic refining, we achieve ultra-low impurity levels (≤0.2%) that satisfy both ASTM B364/B365 and IEC specifications.
| Specification | Requirement | Industrial Application |
| Purity | 99.8% Tantalum (Ta) | Capacitor anodes & high-reliability electronics. |
| Impurities | ≤ 0.2% Total | Critical for “failure-not-an-option” aerospace parts. |
| Particle Size | 0.5 mm – 5 mm | Customizable for sputtering targets or alloying. |
| Compliance | ASTM B364 / B365 | Standard for unalloyed and alloyed tantalum ingots. |
-
Custom Grading: We offer specialized concentrations tailored for vacuum-arc melting or powder-metallurgy consolidation.
-
Packaging: Securely packed in industrial-strength, tamper-evident 50kg bags or specialized steel drums for bulk shipments.
Ethical Mining & Conflict-Free Compliance (ESG)
The “Clean Mineral” movement is at the heart of our operations. We recognize that the aerospace and electronics giants (like Tesla, Panasonic, and Boeing) require auditable transparency.
1. OECD & UN Due Diligence
Our coltan is extracted using advanced opencast techniques in strict adherence to the OECD Due Diligence Guidance for Responsible Supply Chains. Every shipment is accompanied by a certificate of origin and a documented “Chain of Custody” to ensure no contribution to regional conflict.
2. Regulatory Leadership in Tanzania
-
Local Content Compliance: We operate in full alignment with the 2025/2026 Tanzanian Mining Amendments, partnering with 100% indigenous Tanzanian companies (ITCs) to foster local economic growth.
-
ISO 14001 Certification: Our refining sites utilize closed-loop water systems to prevent local groundwater contamination and minimize ecological disturbance.
