A subsidiary of SONAREM Group, SOMIFER was created in 2005 as part of the restructuring of the national mining sector. A public Joint-Stock company, totally owned by SONAREM Group, SOMIFER’s primary mission is the operation, processing, and development of iron ore deposits in Algeria.
Based in the east of the country, particularly in the provinces of Tébessa and Souk Ahras, the company operates several strategic deposits, including those of Boukhadra and Ouenza, which are among the most important in the country.
A key player in the iron ore sector, SOMIFER actively contributes to the revival of national iron ore production, the modernization of extraction processes, and the development of the country’s mining potential. It is fully aligned with SONAREM Group’s strategy to strengthen Algeria’s industrial self-sufficiency and develop an integrated value chain around mineral resources.
