Trinity Metals Limited (Trinity Nyakabingo, Trinity Rutongo and Trinity Musha mines) is a privately owned company engaged in the mining and exploration of tin, tungsten, tantalum and lithium in Rwanda. The Company is currently developing and operating three mining complexes in Rwanda near the city of Kigali: Rutongo Mine (tin); Trinity Nyakabingo Mine (tungsten); and Trinity Musha Mine (tin and tantalum, with lithium exploration).

Trinity Metals Limited was formed in May 2022 with the amalgamation of the three mines under Trinity Metals Group. The Company is committed to the expansion, modernisation and mechanisation of its activities, and to addressing mining-related environmental and social impacts in a responsible and sustainable manner.

All three mines have a long history of artisanal-scale mining dating back to the Belgian times in the late 1930’s. This has resulted in significant environmental and social legacy issues. The Rutongo Concession is 9600ha, with a population of over 80 000. Trinity Metals is committed to addressing community issues in a responsible and sustainable manner and improving socio-economic conditions of host communities.

Trinity Metals is in the process of updating the Environmental and Social Impact Assessments (ESIAs) and Management Plans for all three mines in line with Rwandan law and international best practice. The ESIAs are informed by comprehensive specialist baseline assessments, including a Social Impact Assessment.
