Gold & Minerals — Mubende, Uganda
Our Minerals
Carrago Minerals Investment sources gold and other natural minerals primarily from Mubende District — one of Uganda's most historically significant gold-producing regions. Our operations are grounded in direct relationships with licensed artisanal and small-scale miners, ensuring traceability from pit to export.
Every mineral we handle is assessed on-site, verified for quality and compliance, and exported with full documentation including certificates of origin, mineral export permits, and OECD-aligned due diligence records.
We work within Uganda's regulatory framework under the Directorate of Geological Survey and Mines (DGSM), ensuring every transaction is legal, transparent, and responsibly managed.

Our sourcing network spans Uganda's key mineral-producing districts, with Mubende as our primary hub.
Primary Source — Central Uganda
Uganda's most active gold-producing district. Carrago has established direct sourcing relationships with licensed miners in Mubende, enabling consistent supply of alluvial and hard-rock gold ore.
Western Uganda
Additional sourcing from Buhweju in western Uganda and Busia in the east — both recognized for artisanal gold activity. We work with cooperatives in these regions to expand our verified supply base.
Across Uganda
Beyond gold, Uganda holds deposits of limestone, iron ore, vermiculite, and phosphates. Carrago monitors these sectors and is positioned to trade additional minerals as market demand grows.
