What's the role of a mine?
Mines are important suppliers of precious metals respectively precious metals-bearing materials. Mined precious metals originate from Large and/or Medium-Scale Mines (LSM) or Artisanal and Small-Scale Mines (ASM), i.e., they come from primary sources.
Roughly 2/3 of the global gold supply originates from primary sources.
​
Subcategories of mined precious metals are:
-
Alluvial precious metals, ore, concentrate or doré bars
​
Mines are active in the field of exploration, extraction, processing and transportation of mined precious metals and are engaged in the sales of the mined products.
​
aXedras, the World Gold Council (WGC) and some of its members have partnered throughout 2023 for the Digital Transformation for Mines (DTM) Project and, in addition, the concept of Core Data has emerged and has been finalized.
