One Infrastructure.
Multiple Real-World Markets.

From inquiry to delivery

Proposed workflow

Buyer inquiry

Identify the material, intended use, approximate quantity and delivery requirements.

Specification and terms

Establish the relevant specification, evidence requirements and proposed commercial terms.

Evidence and rights review

Connect inspection, warehousing and rights-related documents to the relevant asset record.

Contract

Define the agreed obligations, payment requirements and conditions for release or delivery.

Payment and release conditions

Record payment status and the checks required before release; payment alone does not imply that every delivery condition is satisfied.

Delivery and record updates

Link release, delivery and agreed acceptance records back to the transaction.

Settlement considerations

Fiat and stablecoin settlement pathways are being evaluated for the proposed workflow. The available payment method, counterparties and release conditions would be established for each transaction.

Preparing settlement liquidity, making a buyer payment, paying a supplier and issuing an asset-linked token are separate processes. A payment currency does not itself define rights to the mineral asset.

Physical trade and tokenized rights are different pathways.

In a physical transaction, the contract defines the material, payment and delivery obligations. A tokenized pathway would additionally require a clearly defined link between the token, the relevant asset and the rights available to its holder.

For eligible warehoused assets, special-purpose vehicle (SPV) and tokenization structures are being explored. The issuer, custody arrangements, transfer restrictions and any delivery or redemption rights would need to be defined in the applicable documents.

From public data to project discovery

Proposed workflow

Public data

Land, building, transaction, planning and other relevant property information where available and usable.

Project information

Information supplied by project owners or relevant partners, with its source and review status distinguished from public records.

Intelligence

Organizing information to support exploration, comparison and the identification of questions requiring specialist review.

Project discovery

Identifying opportunities for further assessment; discovery is not a confirmation of investment suitability.

Specialist review

Relevant rights, appraisal, development, trust, financial or other professional inputs, according to the project.

Financing or structuring

Considering suitable project-specific pathways after the relevant information and responsibilities are defined.

Connecting project information with financing discussions.

Some projects may require short-term funding around site acquisition, preparation or another development milestone. GEO is intended to help organize project information and connect suitable opportunities with specialist financing participants.

Any financing would require an identified borrower and funding provider, an agreed use of funds, appropriate review and project-specific terms. Disbursement, repayment and any follow-on financing would depend on those arrangements.

Project-specific participation and revenue sharing.

RST is a proposed model for project-specific participation and revenue-sharing structures. Any implementation would be subject to applicable legal, regulatory and product-specific requirements.

Where a structure is developed, the participants, rights and terms would be set out in product-specific documentation.
