We ensure strict SGS/Alex Stewart third-party inspection at Karachi Port to meet these exacting standards.Indus Ores supplies premium, conflict-free Antimony Ore (Stibnite, Sb2S3) sourced directly from the high-grade hydrothermal vein deposits of Chitral (KPK) and Qila Abdullah / Kharan (Balochistan), Pakistan.
