About Us
POA Mining combines disciplined operations with pragmatic capital deployment to unlock Nigeria’s critical minerals potential. Starting with Afana Daji, we prioritize a simple mine–sort–ship model to generate immediate cash flow while building optionality for beneficiation and value-add processing in the medium term. Our approach de-risks execution, accelerates payback, and establishes a platform to scale across a portfolio of lithium and allied mineral assets.
