Who we are?

Who we are?

This entity is the latest expansion to the family group of Companies under the SANTANA umbrella. Santana International Traders (“SIT”) is an evolution upstream into natural resources given its roots in gold, diamonds & silver, its base in Africa (which has an abundance of natural resources) and it’s network in business & industry in Africa and abroad.

We embrace ethical sourcing and only work with mines that share our ethos of ‘Sustainability’ in its widest sense – no child labour, a responsible employer caring about employee wellbeing, health & safety, no illegal mining, mine-site rehabilitation and conservation, with adherence to the highest standards from an Environmental Social & Impact Assessment (ESIA) perspective.
