Led by Professor Lisa Wilson, nGRND is pioneering a new approach to gold ownership and resource monetisation based on a simple but powerful concept:
✨ 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗻𝗱.
Rather than extracting every ounce through traditional mining methods, nGRND seeks to unlock value from independently verified gold resources while preserving the deposit in situ.
𝗪𝗛𝗬 𝗜𝗦 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗥𝗘𝗟𝗘𝗩𝗔𝗡𝗧 𝗧𝗢 𝗙𝗖𝗠?
The Kerrs Gold Project hosts a significant NI 43-101 compliant gold resource within one of Canada's premier mining jurisdictions.
Through the proposed transaction structure:
🔹 FCM receives consideration for granting rights associated with the Kerrs resource
🔹 The gold remains in the ground and under independent verification standards
🔹 nGRND can utilise the resource within its gold-backed ecosystem
🔹 The project may benefit from additional long-term value opportunities associated with land stewardship and preservation
🔹 Shareholders gain exposure to an innovative monetisation pathway that differs from conventional mine development
🎙️ In this fascinating interview, Professor Wilson discusses:
▪️ Why billions of ounces of gold around the world may never be mined
▪️ How verified gold resources can be monetised without extraction
▪️ The environmental benefits of preserving deposits in situ
▪️ The growing convergence of mining, digital assets and real-world asset tokenisation
▪️ Why gold may be uniquely suited to this model
Professor Wilson brings exceptional credentials to the sector, having worked with major mining companies including 𝗥𝗶𝗼 𝗧𝗶𝗻𝘁𝗼 and 𝗕𝗛𝗣, alongside extensive experience in digital assets, carbon markets and tokenisation.
