North America Critical Elements Corporation (NACE Corp)
Empowering Africa's Mineral Future Through Win-Win (50/50) U.S.-Africa Partnerships: The $17 Billion Mineral Exploration Program That Will Convert Africa’s Vast Inferred Resources Into Proven Reserves, For Shared Prosperity And Sustainable Development.
Welcome to NACE Corp
Pioneering Sustainable Minerals Development in Africa
At North America Critical Elements Corporation (NACE Corp), through our flagship Africa-American Minerals Initiative (AAMI), we are committed to unlocking Africa's vast critical minerals potential in close partnership with the United States.
By fostering responsible exploration and development, AAMI prioritizes lasting benefits for African nations and communities: creating thousands of high-skilled jobs, transferring advanced technologies and expertise to local workforces, building essential infrastructure, and generating substantial revenues for national development.
These efforts empower African economies, promote inclusive growth, enhance energy access, and support environmental stewardship – all while contributing to diversified, secure global supply chains.
Together, we are building a prosperous future where Africa's mineral wealth drives sustainable progress and shared prosperity for generations to come.
Why It Matters
The Africa-American Minerals Initiative (AAMI) will radically transform Africa's mining sector by shifting from inefficient artisanal mining and unsustainable exports of raw ore to advanced local processing, creating thousands of high-skilled jobs, transferring cutting-edge technologies, and building modern infrastructure. It empowers African nations with greater value retention, sustainable revenues for development, enhanced environmental standards, and true economic sovereignty over their mineral wealth.
01
Breaking the resource curse in Africa.
The AAMI will break Africa's resource curse by shifting from artisanal mining and raw exports to local processing, retaining greater value, creating high-skilled jobs, building infrastructure, and channeling sustainable revenues into diversified national development.
02
Laying solid foundations for an efficient African mining sector.
Accelerating exploration through AAMI will build a much stronger African mining sector by rapidly identifying high-potential deposits, attracting massive investments, creating skilled jobs, developing infrastructure, and establishing sustainable, diversified revenues for long-term economic stability.
03
The transfer of technology and know-how is at the heart of our work.
Our massive transfer of North American technologies and expertise will revolutionize African mineral exploration by introducing advanced geophysical tools, AI-driven data analysis, and sustainable methods—boosting discovery rates, reducing costs, enhancing environmental standards, and building local capacity for long-term sovereignty
NACE's Unprecedented Operational Capabilities.
01
2 000 Drilling Rigs
NACE will deploy an unprecedented fleet of 2,000 drilling rigs (DDH and RC), enabling rapid, large-scale exploration across Africa's most promising mineral districts.
02
50+ Million Assays Per Year
Our world-class laboratories boast a combined annual capacity of 50 million sample analyses, delivering fast, accurate results to accelerate resource delineation for African partners.
03
The Most Advanced Technologies
NACE harnesses the world's most advanced exploration technologies (directional drilling, core scanners, photon assay, AI-driven data processing, drone and satellite remote sensing) for superior discovery rates and environmental responsibility.
04
A Fleet Of Airplanes and Helicopters
Our fleet of 20 helicopters and 10 light aircraft and drones will support airborne geophysics and efficient team transport, reaching remote regions safely and sustainably to unlock hidden mineral potential.
05
50 000 Direct Jobs
AAMI will create 50,000 direct jobs (90% filled by skilled Africans) including 10,000 highly trained geologists and engineers backed by the USGS and Colorado School of Mines. This will ensure technical excellence, international standards, and knowledge transfer that strengthen Africa's mining capabilities for generations.
