Transform Your Business with Top Experts Today
Selling minerals or precious metals for the first time can be exciting—but also overwhelming. Many newcomers in the mining and trading space make avoidable mistakes that cost them time, money, and opportunities. At Hego Trading (Pty) Ltd, we've helped hundreds of clients navigate these challenges, and we want to help you avoid the same pitfalls.
Not Knowing the True Value of Their Material
One of the biggest mistakes is walking into a deal without knowing the grade, purity, or composition of the mineral you’re selling. This puts all the power in the buyer’s hands—and often leads to a lower price.
âś… The Solution:
Always insist on independent or in-house lab testing before selling. At Hego Trading, we conduct scientific, transparent tests in our own lab so sellers know the true value of their commodity—before agreeing to a price.

Dealing with Unverified Buyers or Middlemen
New sellers often fall into the trap of working with unverified buyers or third-party agents promising big deals. These intermediaries can be unreliable—or worse, dishonest.
âś… The Solution:
Work with a registered, experienced, and traceable company like Hego Trading. We’re licensed, well-known in the industry, and operate from a physical location in Pretoria—so you always know where your material is going and who’s handling it.

Rushing the Process
In a rush to get paid, sellers sometimes skip key steps like due diligence, testing, or proper delivery documentation. This often backfires.
