Critical Minerals for Modern Industry

Sourcing Essential Minerals Responsibly

SLJ Trading Company LLC is your trusted partner for sourcing high-demand critical minerals that drive today’s innovation and tomorrow’s infrastructure. We focus on minerals essential to energy storage, electric mobility, and defense-grade applications — sourced with integrity, delivered with precision.

Neodymium (Nd)

Neodymium is at the heart of high-performance magnets used in electric vehicles, wind turbines, drones, and next-generation electronics. As global electrification accelerates, securing a reliable supply of this rare earth element is no longer optional — it’s strategic.

Cobalt (Co)

Cobalt is indispensable to lithium-ion batteries and grid-level energy storage systems. It supports the rapid shift to electric transportation and renewable integration. Geopolitical tension and constrained supply chains make it a volatile but essential commodity — one we can help you access with confidence.

Graphite

Graphite is the overlooked powerhouse in every battery. It’s vital to anodes in lithium-ion cells, and increasingly difficult to source due to export restrictions and soaring demand. Without graphite, there’s no energy transition.

Antimony (Sb)

Antimony is a key component in flame retardants, semiconductors, and military-grade alloys. Its scarcity and strategic role in critical industries have placed it high on the priority list for governments and manufacturers alike.
