About Us
Local roots. International standards.
Who we are
BENOUARETH GOLD AND DIAMONDS was founded on a simple conviction: African gold and diamonds deserve a trading partner that combines local roots with international standards.
- Direct, traceable supply chains
- Purity certified by independent fire assay
- Confidentiality and security at every step
Based in Freetown, Sierra Leone, we operate at the heart of one of the world's richest mining regions. We merge deep commercial expertise with a steadfast commitment to transparency, documentation and quality. Our role is to build robust bridges of trust between African producers and the global market.
Our Vision
To become a reference name in West African precious metals: a company known for delivering exactly what its certificates state, on time, every time.
Our Mission
- Secure direct, traceable supply chains from mine to export.
- Refine and certify gold to international purity standards.

- Create lasting value for local mining communities through fair, legal trade.
Our core values
We believe trust is the most precious metal in our dealings. Our word and our certificates are our signature.
Every transaction is documented: origin, weight, fineness, ownership, export permits. Nothing is left to assumption.
From rough stone selection to final bullion, we apply strict quality control at every step.
We build long-term relationships with suppliers, buyers and investors to ensure mutual growth.
The Founder
Saïd Benouareth
Founder & Owner
An Algerian entrepreneur in precious metals, Saïd Benouareth built BENOUARETH GOLD AND DIAMONDS on a simple conviction: African gold and diamonds deserve a trading partner that combines local roots with international standards.
He runs the company from Freetown, at the heart of one of the world's richest mining regions, and stays close to the material itself — lots are weighed, sampled and assayed under his eye before any certificate is issued. That hands-on involvement is what makes a document match what is actually delivered.
Beyond the metals trade he leads an investment activity, Boss B Gold and Ben Wareth Investment, financing strategic projects across Africa and the Middle East.
