Today, the artisanal and small-scale mining (ASM) sector contributes up to 20% of the world’s gold and as much as 30% of global cobalt production — two metals central to the energy transition. Yet, despite this scale, ASM operations often operate with limited access to technical expertise, responsible finance, and sustainable practices. The result is a sector that delivers significant economic and social value, but also faces challenges related to efficiency, environmental impact, and transparency.
Eden Rock exists to change that.
We apply industrial-grade precision to semi-industrial projects while preserving the local knowledge, agility, and economic relevance of small-scale operations. Our model is built on traceable technology, inclusive growth, and a Protected Cell Company structure that promotes both accountability and flexibility.
Our operations span Africa and Latin America, with a leadership team carrying over 70 years of combined experience in some of the world’s most complex geological and regulatory landscapes.
At every step, our goal is clear: to unlock the full potential of the semi-industrial sector — responsibly, transparently, and sustainably.
OUR VALUES
From exploration to export, we hold ourselves to the highest standards of honesty, compliance, and corporate governance. Using traceability technology, we ensure that every ounce of material we extract can be tracked, verified, and ethically sourced. Transparency is not a marketing claim, it’s our operational backbone.
Integrity & Transparency
From safety to scalability, we uphold the rigorous standards of industrial mining while remaining nimble. Every Eden Rock site is managed for performance, compliance, and sustainability — delivering results without compromising values.
Operational Excellence
We believe innovation isn’t just for large companies. Eden Rock integrates advanced geoscience, modular processing systems, remote monitoring tools, and data intelligence into every semi-industrial site. Our ability to adapt technology to context — whether in the Guiana Shield or North Kivu — sets us apart from traditional operators.
Continuous Innovation
We are committed to minimizing the ecological footprint of every operation we run. Our approach includes energy-efficient mining methods, responsible waste management, land restoration planning, and a deep respect for biodiversity. We prioritize projects that align with long-term ecological resilience, not short-term extraction.
Environmental Responsibility
We build with, not around, communities. Eden Rock works hand-in-hand with local miners, civil society, NGOs, and governments to co-develop projects that are socially inclusive and economically empowering. We don’t view local engagement as a side activity — it’s central to our model.
Open Collaboration
OUR MISSION
AND VISION
Our mission is to responsibly transform semi-industrial mining by applying advanced technology and rigorous standards, unlocking its potential as a sustainable engine for inclusive growth, environmental stewardship, and ethical value creation.
Our vision is to become the reference in responsible semi-industrial mining, demonstrating that operational excellence, traceability, and long-term community value can coexist at scale.

At Eden Rock, we’re not just building a mining company, we’re redefining what responsible resource development can look like.
Eden Rock, founded in 2024, is the evolved form of Librexplore Ltd, previously launched in 2022 with the same driving ambition: to unlock the full potential of small and medium-scale mining. Built to fill a critical gap in the global mining landscape, Eden Rock is rooted in a simple but bold belief; when empowered by the right technology, expertise, and ethical foundation, smaller-scale mining projects can generate impact equal to, and often greater than their large-scale counterparts.
