Trade MC

Refining and supplying precious metals

Metal Concentrators SA (Pty) Ltd has a trustworthy reputation in the field of refining and supplying precious metals in South Africa. With over 20 years of technical expertise, Metal Contractors (MetCon) is one of the most trusted refineries in the industry.

A state-of-the-art refining plant and new generation laboratory equipment enables MetCon to offer precious metal suppliers a consistently high quality trading service. MetCon provides for all sampling and assay needs with absolute international accuracy.

The manual process of measuring the quality of the precious metals received from suppliers accurately and timeously presented a challenge for MetCon, especially with an increase in the number of suppliers and positive growth of the business. MetCon required an automated digital system that could deliver real-time responses to suppliers enquiring about the trade of their precious metals, and which could also function as an interactive platform for both MetCon and its suppliers to keep track of their account.

Trade MC is a digital application that enables commodity suppliers to submit and track the value of their gold and other precious metals while undergoing a refining process at MetCon. At the same time, MetCon is able to process and update suppliers on their trade request and to provide an automated transaction history of the trade balance. The advantages of this system include:


The accurate trade of gold and precious metals benched against the latest market rates.

  1. Ethical trading between MetCon and its suppliers through the digital record of trade certificates, commodity trading limits and neutralised security measures.
  2. Efficient and reliable automated financial management of supplier accounts through credit and debit checks (instantaneously accessible to the supplier through the client account).
  3. Fair trade between all stakeholders.
