Transport Services
Mine to port haulage
across the Copperbelt.
Heavy haulage from mine and warehouse to the loading port, under escort, on time, with full documentation. We move our own represented material and contract for third party shippers across the region.
Eagle Star is actively involved in the Lobito Corridor initiative, the new rail and logistics route linking the Central African copper belt through Angola to the Atlantic. This gives us a foothold in one of the most important emerging export channels for African copper and strengthens our ability to coordinate shipments efficiently for our buyers.
Mine to Port
Collection at the mine or warehouse, weighbridge and seal at load out, escorted transit, and handover at the port with the full document set.
Bulk and Containerized
Strapped cathode bundles, big bags of concentrate, loose bulk and containers, each loaded and secured to the buyer's shipping line requirement.
Fuel Distribution
Diesel and petroleum products delivered to mine tank farms, depots and commercial fleets under our ERB licence, with volumes reconciled on discharge.
Cross Border
Permits, customs entries and frontier clearances prepared ahead of arrival at Kasumbalesa, Tunduma, Beitbridge and Machipanda, so trucks are not left standing.
Lobito Corridor logistics and the export routes we run
- Lobito, Angola
- Rail from the copper belt through Angola, the shortest run to a west facing port and the fastest sailing to Europe and the Americas.
- Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
- Road haulage north through Tunduma. Our default lane for cathode moving to Asian buyers.
- Durban, South Africa
- The long south run through Zimbabwe and Beitbridge. Deep water berths and the widest choice of sailings.
- Beira, Mozambique
- The short east run through Machipanda. Quick turnaround for smaller parcels and containerized loads.

Leadership
Koshin,
Chief Executive Officer.
Three completed combat tours with direct command experience. He commanded demining operations in active conflict zones and held command responsibility for the fortification of positions against Boko Haram in West Africa. As deputy mayor of FOB-2 Dashtu, he ran civil and military coordination for the entire forward operating base and commanded it through to decommissioning without a single casualty. Not one death. He closed the base after hostilities ended, completing logistics on a budget of over 300 million and providing security throughout drawdown and closure.
