MineDigitising gold production, one mine at a time
MineStarter is part of PRC Group's vision to digitise gold in West Africa. We connect global investors with artisanal and small-scale mining projects, ensuring every investment is ESG-compliant, traceable, and transparent.
Bridging local producers and global capital
MineStarter began with a simple observation: Ghana's artisanal and small-scale mining sector produces real, valuable gold — but has historically lacked access to transparent, regulated capital. Formalising these operations means better safety standards, verified environmental practice, and fair compensation for local producers.
By pairing blockchain-based traceability with ESG auditing and smart-contract-driven payouts, MineStarter gives global investors a transparent way to fund production directly, while giving mine operators access to capital that was previously out of reach.
