Our Vision
Elpis Capital is a premier investment and trading firm at the forefront of the African mining sector. We bridge the gap between resource-rich landscapes and global industrial demand by integrating capital investment, strategic logistics, and commodity trading into a seamless value chain.
Our multidisciplinary team combines financial expertise with technical mining knowledge, allowing us to identify high-potential assets and unlock their value. By funding local producers and optimizing supply chains, we ensure valid, reliable delivery of critical raw materials including chrome, manganese, and base metals to international markets. At Elpis, we are more than investors; we are partners in sustainable growth and economic development.

Jacques Erasmus stands as the visionary force behind Elpis Capital. His deep expertise in global finance was forged during his tenure at the London offices of UBS and ABN Amro, where he acquired substantial knowledge in complex financial structuring and international markets.
Leveraging this world-class banking foundation, Jacques navigates the African mining landscape with a unique perspective, identifying value where others see only challenge. His leadership is defined by a hands-on approach to deal structuring and a commitment to ethical resource management, driving Elpis Capital's mission to bridge the gap between junior miners and global commodities buyers.
