Chromite Beneficiation · North West Province, South Africa
Every ton the industry
wrote off, we turn into concentrate.
TBL Chrome Resources reprocesses overlooked chromite reefs and historical tailings across Brits, Kroondal and Silverton — converting resources the market called waste into export-grade chrome concentrate.
— Who We Are
Waste was never
the end of the story.
| "We view low-grade, secondary and tailings materials as untapped opportunities — not waste."
TBL Chrome Resources holds a secured strategic market position built on processing chromite reefs the industry overlooked — either for their complexity, or because they were simply written off as in-situ waste — alongside historical processed tailings.
A diversified metal recovery business with a growing portfolio of projects across the North West Province.
We're a dynamic, versatile metals producer committed to unlocking the full value of low-grade, secondary and tailings materials. Our approach redefines conventional mining practice: reprocessing mine waste into a sustainable, repeatable source of resource utilisation, rather than chasing new virgin ore bodies alone.
It's a model built for a resource-constrained, ESG-conscious mining industry — and one that scales with every historical tailings dam and overlooked reef in the region.
5,000 to 15,000 tons of chrome concentrate
about us
Over 4 Years of Trusted Chrome Benefication
TBL Chrome Resources (Pty) Ltd holds a secured, strategic position in South Africa's chrome processing sector. Our focus is the material the rest of the industry overlooks: complex chromite reefs and historical tailings once regarded as in-situ waste.

Operational efficiency is at the core of everything we do. Our in-house technical development centre continuously challenges industry norms and drives the solutions we roll out across our operations.
Through our engineering partner, Cromal (Pty) Ltd, we design and deploy modular chrome processing units — the backbone of our concentrate production capacity.
Our modular approach is compact, power- and water-efficient, and built to operate closer to source. That means less reliance on fixed infrastructure and far greater resilience against the infrastructure challenges that limit conventional plants.

Everything You Need to Know About Our Chrome beneficiation.
Chrome beneficiation is the critical metallurgical process of upgrading low-grade run-of-mine (ROM) chromite ore to commercial-grade concentrate by separating valuable chromite from worthless gangue minerals.
Chrome beneficiation is the process of upgrading raw chromite ore. It separates valuable chromite minerals from worthless gangue rock. The process increases the chromium oxide (Cr₂O₃) content. It prepares the material for ferroalloy production.
Most mined chrome ore is too low-grade for direct smelting. Run-of-mine ore contains high levels of silica and iron. Beneficiation removes these impurities to meet strict market specifications. It also lowers energy consumption during subsequent smelting phases. Higher grades maximize the financial returns for mining operations.
Gravity separation: Uses density differences via spiraling, jigging, or shaking tables.
Magnetic separation: Explores the weak magnetic properties of certain iron-bearing minerals.
Flotation: Utilizes chemicals to attach air bubbles to ultra-fine chrome particles.
Heavy medium separation: Sinks or floats material using dense liquid mixtures.
Slimes losses: Ultra-fine chrome particles often escape traditional gravity circuits.
Water management: The process requires immense volumes of recycled water.
Tailings disposal: Safe storage of waste material poses environmental risks.
Variable mineralogy: Changing ore bodies require constant plant tuning.
