Ask us directly. If it is a question worth answering once, it is probably worth answering on this page too.
Direct answers to what organisations most often ask us before they get in touch.
Send an outline to info@samadrock.com, or use the enquiry form on our contact page. Set out what the project is, where it is, what stage it has reached, who is involved, and the role you have in mind for SamadRock.
Please use our official channels rather than approaching individuals informally. Enquiries that come through official channels are logged and reviewed; those that do not may not reach the right people.
Enough for us to form a considered view. In practice that usually means technical information about what is being built or operated, the commercial structure and the parties involved, ownership details for the asset or rights concerned, the regulatory position, and an honest account of what is agreed versus what is still open.
If a project is at an early stage, say so. We would far rather see an accurate early-stage summary than an optimistic one. Overstating readiness only delays the point at which we both discover the project is not ready.
Not before an engagement exists. Where a project originates with an external organisation, preparing and submitting the initial proposal is that organisation's responsibility.
We can be engaged to prepare technical documentation, studies, business plans or project strategy — that is a substantial part of what we do — but that work is itself an engagement, with an agreed scope, terms and funding, rather than something we do speculatively in advance of one.
Every genuine enquiry is reviewed. We look at whether the project fits our areas of work, whether it is at a stage where we can add something useful, whether the documentation supports a meaningful assessment, and whether we can resource it properly alongside existing commitments.
Projects that pass an initial review go to a technical and commercial assessment. We may come back with questions — that is normal, and usually a good sign.
No. This is the single most important thing on this page.
An enquiry, a call, a meeting or a period of correspondence does not mean we have accepted your project, agreed to provide services, committed resources, or entered into any commercial relationship with you. It does not mean we will introduce the project to anyone else.
Acceptance follows the engagement process and is confirmed in writing. Until there is a written agreement, there is no engagement — however encouraging the conversation has been.
Once the appropriate agreements are complete: scope defined, responsibilities set out, commercial terms and funding arrangements settled. At that point we allocate people and the work starts.
We do not begin work in anticipation of terms being agreed later. It sounds accommodating, but in practice it produces work that nobody has properly specified or accepted responsibility for — which serves neither side.
We aim to respond to every genuine enquiry within two business days. That first response tells you whether the project is of interest and what we would need to look at it properly.
A full technical and commercial assessment takes longer and depends on the complexity of the project and how complete the documentation is. Incomplete submissions are the most common reason for delay.
Yes, where it is appropriate to the discussion. Confidentiality runs both ways, and much of our own work is subject to confidentiality agreements with existing clients — which is why we do not publish client names, site details or commercial terms.
If you need an NDA in place before sharing detail, say so in your first message and we will deal with it early rather than mid-conversation.
In writing, before work begins. We agree the scope of work, the commercial terms and the funding arrangements in advance, and the resulting agreement governs the engagement.
Where appropriate we may ask for evidence of funding arrangements or corporate authority before progressing. This is standard commercial practice, it applies regardless of the size of the project, and it is not a comment on any particular counterparty.
Because the alternative fails predictably. Work begun without agreed scope, terms or funding tends to be work that nobody has resourced, specified or taken responsibility for — and it is usually the client who bears the consequence when it stalls.
Agreeing terms first means you know exactly what you are getting and we can commit the right people to it. It also means that when we say yes, you can rely on it. That is the point of the whole process.
SamadRock is not an investment business. We do not offer investments or financial products, we do not raise capital from the public, we do not manage client money, we do not operate a fund, and we are not a broker or investment platform. We are not authorised or regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and do not carry out regulated activities.
Where we develop our own projects, we may engage partners in a commercial capacity — as joint venture, development, operating or project partners — on terms agreed in writing. Nothing on this website is an offer or invitation to engage in investment activity.
Only representatives expressly authorised in writing by the company. Authority is specific, current, and confirmable — and it is never created by a verbal statement.
In July 2026 we withdrew all continuing authorities previously granted in the company's name unless reaffirmed in writing after that date. Nobody holds authority to represent SamadRock merely because they once did. If someone tells you they act for us and it matters to your decision, ask us — see Authority to Represent SamadRock.
Send it, or its reference number, to admin@samadrock.com and we will confirm whether we issued it and whether it remains current. There is no charge and you do not need to be a client.
Official documents normally carry a controlled reference number, an issue date, a version number, appropriate authorisation and our company details. See Document Verification.
No. SamadRock Ltd is a private company registered in England and Wales (company number 15522844). It is not a government body, is not government owned, endorsed, appointed or authorised, and does not represent or speak on behalf of any ministry or authority in Egypt or elsewhere.
Where our work requires engagement with regulatory authorities, we do that as a private company acting for a client — in the same way any consultancy would.
No. SamadRock does not own or operate mines and does not hold mining licences or concessions in its own name. Our mining work is consultancy, management support and operational oversight provided to mining companies under structured commercial agreements. The underlying projects, licences and approvals belong to the companies that engage us.
Those engagements are subject to confidentiality agreements, which is why we do not publish client names or site details.
