Eurasian Resources Group operates through six divisions supported by centralised sales and marketing to sell products to Kazakhstan, China, Japan, Europe, Africa, Middle East and the United States. It is well positioned geographically to benefit from attractive growth markets.
Some activities exist primarily to support the metals operations, including power generation, coal mining and transportation, but these activities are also the key to securing the needs of the Group’s business partners in the energy and logistics sectors.
The Ferroalloys Division produces and sells ferrochrome, as well as other ferroalloys, for use as alloying products in the production of steel. Manganese and chrome ore are sold to third party producers of ferroalloys and to the chemical industry.
The Iron Ore Division comprises exploration, extraction, processing and manufacturing of iron ore products. It consists of operating assets in Kazakhstan and exploration and development assets in Brazil. In Kazakhstan, the Iron Ore Division produces and sells iron ore concentrate and pellets to steel producers and it is a material exporter of iron ore. Ancillary products include limestone, dolomite and construction gravel.
The Alumina and Aluminum Division comprises extraction and processing of bauxite and limestone, and smelting of alumina and aluminum. ERG produces and sells alumina to aluminum producers, and also produces and sells its own aluminum.
The Other Non-ferrous Division comprises the exploration and extraction, processing and manufacturing of copper and cobalt products, and the exploration of other minerals in Africa. The Other Non-ferrous Division operates principally in the DRC, where it mines copper and cobalt and processes the ore, and in Zambia, where it has the Chambishi copper and cobalt refinery. It also includes road logistics and trucking operations throughout Central and Southern Africa. In addition, ERG has a number of exploration and development assets across Africa, including Mozambique (coal), Zimbabwe (platinum), South Africa (fluorspar) and Mali (bauxite).
The Energy Division comprises steam coal mining, processing to produce coke and semi-coke products and power generation. In Kazakhstan, ERG is one of the largest electricity providers and coal and semi-coke producers. The division provides secure energy to the ERG’s principal operating divisions and third parties.

Cobalt-based alloys have a diverse range of important uses, but are most commonly associated with battery materials and 'super-alloys' used in extreme environment where hard wearing and heat resistance are vital
and processes them to concentrate of varying grades, suppling cobalt concentrate to the market for further processing to metal or battery materials. A part of Boss Mining production is further processed at Chambishi Metals in Zambia that produces cobalt metal in broken cathode form of varying grades to meet market demands.

Copper and copper-based alloys are used in a variety of applications that are necessary for a reasonable standard of living.
In its refined form it is a malleable and ductile metal that is an excellent conductor of heat and electricity (second only to precious metals) as well as being corrosion resistant and antimicrobial.
Boss Mining (metal and concentrate), Frontier (concentrate) and
Comide (concentrate). These facilities supply Chambishi Metals,
ERG’s flagship processing operation in Zambia, that produces
copper cathode with purity above 99.9935%.
