Built with Ghana's institutions
MineStarter's compliance and traceability model leans on named regulatory, audit and technology partners — shown here as illustrative placeholders for this demo build.
The institutions that license and verify us
West Africa Mining Regulator
The regional authority for artisanal and small-scale gold licensing and export in the concept this platform is modelled on — every mining partner listed on MineStarter must hold an active licence from this body before a project can be published.
Meridian ESG Auditors
Conducts the independent site safety, environmental and labour-standard audits that gate every project listing, and issues the sample audit report format used on the ESG & Compliance page.
Golden Standards Council
Administers Green Mining Certification — the environmental standard covering zero-mercury processing, land rehabilitation and water/tailings management that projects must meet and renew annually.
Kintampo Vault & Custody
The vault partner referenced in the platform's traceability model — where assayed gold output is held in secure custody ahead of tokenisation and investor distribution.
Anchorpoint Compliance Group
Provides the AML and KYC monitoring framework referenced across the Admin Console's Compliance & ESG tab — including flag review, SAR-style escalation, and investor due-diligence tiers.
The infrastructure behind the platform
KYC & Identity Verification
Biometric identity verification for investor onboarding, referenced by the KYC/AML step in Signup and the Admin Console's KYC Queue.
Payments & Payouts
The payments rail this concept assumes for investor deposits and payouts, covering mobile money and international transfer for diaspora investors.
Cloud Infrastructure
Regional cloud hosting referenced for investor data and KYC document storage, chosen for data-residency compliance in the jurisdictions this build is modelled on.
We're open to conversations
Institutional investors, mining cooperatives and technology partners can reach the team via Contact — routed to the right department.
Partner names shown throughout this site are illustrative placeholders for this demo build, not real organisations.
