Who We Are
Classic Energies & Minerals Limited
Transforming Natural Wealth into Global Strength
Classic Energies and Minerals Limited is a fully registered Ghanaian company, born out of the legacy and business expansion of Colonial Classic Limited, a diversified group with established operations in cashew cultivation, processing and export, mining, and petroleum. Headquartered in Accra, Ghana, Classic Energies and Minerals represents the group’s strategic focus on the energy and mineral sectors, leveraging years of industry experience and a solid operational foundation.
Far from being a startup, the company benefits from the strong track record and business networks of its parent group. It is actively engaged in the trading, distribution, and development of oil, gas, and mineral resources, with a strong commitment to sustainability, operational excellence, good corporate governance, and environmental stewardship.
With a clear vision to be a leading force in West Africa’s energy and mineral industries, Classic Energies and Minerals operates across the value chain—from upstream and downstream oil and gas services to the sourcing, processing, and export of both precious and industrial minerals.
