COMPLIANCE & TRACEABILITY

Mineral compliance and traceability: the evidence chain

Each transaction is built around counterparty checks, origin evidence, applicable export permissions, independent inspection and controlled document access.

01

Rough diamond controls

Rough-diamond transactions are structured to require applicable Kimberley Process documentation and official export clearance. The scheme applies to rough diamonds. It does not cover gold, tanzanite or copper.

  • Shipment-specific certificate review
  • Sealed parcel and document reconciliation
  • Buyer-side import requirement check
02

Risk-based mineral due diligence

Our operating model is designed around the OECD five-step due diligence framework for responsible mineral supply chains. Claims are supported transaction by transaction, not by slogans.

  • Supplier and beneficial-owner screening
  • Risk identification and escalation
  • Record retention and reporting
03

Government channels

Exports are prepared for clearance through the relevant Tanzanian or Kenyan authority. License numbers and permits are shared with qualified counterparties for verification. We refuse to publish them as decorative badges.

  • Tanzania Mining Commission process
  • Kenya State Department for Mining process
  • Customs and royalty documentation
04

Independent verification

Assay, grading and inspection evidence is released in the secure data room when it exists for a specific lot. Laboratory names are never implied before appointment.

  • Chain-of-custody register
  • Lot-level document matching
  • Controlled buyer access

CONTROLLED ACCESS

Sensitive trade data never belongs on a public page.
