What we do
Integrating and delivering authentic solutions focused on artisanal mining value chains that unlock financial, social, environmental and economic value given the inherent potential of the sector.
Our scope is global, delivering multiple forms of value. Artisanal mining, small and medium sized large scale mines and modular approaches to infrastructure that range from refining through to solar power are in our scope. Differing minerals ranging from gold and other precious metals and stones, as well as critical minerals, are in our scope.
Why we do it
Value and values – our intent is fairness, stable predictable equitable business practices that improve lives while increasing value for all. Dignity is at the heart of fairness, which means that a focus on dignity is central to the DNA of our values.
get in touchHow we do it
Integration
We bring diverse capabilities together toward improving last mile outcomes in financially viable ways. Our network of partners and collaborators range from hardcore finance, the ability to target financing at opportunities that make sense, through ground-level engagement and solution design / implementation expertise, all the way to down-stream value chain transformation that incorporates disciplines around traceability and validation in order to sustain gains. (From modular solar systems to traceable gold, we ensure last-mile viability and investor confidence).
Authenticity
Our work is driven by the intersection of values and value, where solutions that are designed and implemented are geared toward improving lives, ecological oversight and economies along with catalyzing remarkable financial value. We engage partners and collaborators who reflect our values and whose skills and experience have proven track records of success (All project designs start with direct miner input and include measurable social impact indicators).
Accountability
We set out goals, measure progress against these goals and share the results of these measures. We redirect focus as conditions and realities on the ground change, knowing that success is fostered by the ability to dynamically manage change (We provide real-time dashboards and project-level reporting to investors and stakeholders).
Flexibility
Our work reflects realities on the ground – economic, cultural, business. Our approach incorporates flexible frameworks that allow us to target how we do work in different places based on the specific realities of these places (Our modular approaches adapt to the regional business, regulatory, and cultural environment).
Clarity
Common language is essential for communication. Investor engagement requires understanding of opportunities, which is precisely what a series of validated discrete asset classes provide. Ongoing engagement between miners and their various stakeholders requires a common language, which is precisely the thinking that our network of partner and collaborators bring (Reframe to explain how discrete asset classes and digital tools make opportunities understandable to investors).
