Dorogis Limited Redefines Mining Through Data, Sustainability, and Global Vision

A New Era for Critical Minerals

NATIONWIDE - NOVEMBER 2025 - (USAnews.com) On a dusty field in Plateau State, Nigeria, a small drone rises into the air, its sensors scanning the rugged terrain below. But this is no ordinary mining survey. Behind the operation is Dorogis Limited, a trailblazer in the critical minerals sector that is reimagining what responsible, technology-driven exploration looks like in the 21st century.

For founder and CEO Tolulope Fatunbi, this moment represents far more than discovery. It’s about transforming how the world perceives African mining,  from a story of resource extraction to one of innovation, transparency, and sustainable progress.

“Our approach is not just about mining minerals,” Fatunbi says. “It’s about creating a scalable, responsible ecosystem that integrates the best of technology, transparency, and community engagement.”

With operations rooted in Nigeria and a growing base in Alberta, Canada, Dorogis Limited is bridging continents to supply the critical minerals,  lithium, tantalum, and rare earth elements,  that power the global clean energy transition.

From Africa to the World: The “MineralTech” Revolution

At the heart of Dorogis’ success is its MineralTech operating model,  a data-driven system that combines field geology, satellite analytics, AI prospectivity modeling, and drone-enabled surveys. This integrated approach has dramatically cut exploration costs and improved the accuracy of mineral discovery.

By merging traditional geological expertise with next-generation tools, Dorogis has achieved what few exploration firms can: efficient, transparent, and sustainable mineral mapping across Nigeria’s rich geological landscapes.

“By leveraging technology, we can make better decisions, faster, and with more certainty,” Fatunbi explains. “The result is not only more efficient exploration but also a more accountable and traceable supply chain.”

The company’s operations extend through Nigeria’s Plateau, Nasarawa, and Kaduna states, regions abundant in lithium and rare earth elements crucial for batteries, semiconductors, and renewable energy technologies. These resources are integral to global efforts in decarbonization, making Dorogis a strategic player in the energy transition economy.

Building a Sustainable Supply Chain

Beyond exploration, Dorogis Limited is deeply committed to sustainability and ethical governance. Every phase of its operation,  from early-stage sampling to downstream processing,  follows stringent Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) protocols.

The company works closely with local communities to ensure that mining projects create shared value through employment, environmental restoration, and skill development. This community-centric philosophy is embedded in its corporate DNA.

“We embed data transparency from the very first sample collected to the final product shipped,” Fatunbi says. “Our goal is to not only meet the expectations of regulators but exceed the requirements of global manufacturers who demand traceable, sustainable materials.”

By building a traceable, data-rich supply chain, Dorogis provides confidence to international partners seeking ethically sourced materials,  a growing demand across the clean energy and technology sectors.

Recognition and Global Reach

In 2025, Dorogis Limited was recognized as the Best Sustainable Mining Company in Nigeria by Best of Best Reviews, cementing its reputation as a leader in sustainable mineral development. The award acknowledged the company’s pioneering integration of AI, machine learning, and drone-enabled surveys in minimizing environmental impact while boosting exploration precision.

Dorogis’ international expansion,  through its Canadian affiliate, Dorogis International,  now allows the company to align its operations with global buyers, ensuring that its mineral products meet international standards for quality and sustainability.

With headquarters in Nigeria and growing ties to North American markets, Dorogis stands as a model of Africa-led innovation with global impact.

A Vision Rooted in Responsibility

Dorogis’ mission extends far beyond profit. It aims to redefine African mining as a cornerstone of sustainable industrial growth, enabling African nations to capture more value within the global supply chain.

Fatunbi’s long-term vision is to make Africa a global hub for responsibly sourced critical minerals,  not by replicating old extractive models, but by building new systems that prioritize data integrity, social equity, and environmental stewardship.

“As Africa’s mineral wealth continues to be in high demand, we are creating a model that allows us to unlock that potential in a way that benefits everyone,” Fatunbi reflects. “By doing this right, Dorogis is helping lay the foundation for a new industrial ecosystem in Africa,  one built on innovation, trust, and long-term growth.”

Powering the Future

Dorogis Limited’s journey is proof that the future of mining is not just about what lies beneath the surface,  it’s about how we extract, process, and deliver those resources responsibly. Through innovation, transparency, and collaboration, Dorogis is showing the world that sustainable mining is not only possible but profitable.

As the world races toward a low-carbon future, the demand for critical minerals continues to surge. With its advanced technology, robust governance, and human-centered approach, Dorogis Limited is positioned to lead that transformation,  setting a new global benchmark for responsible resource development.
