Institutional desk focus
The gold lane is designed for institutional buyers who want disciplined sourcing, not casual introductions. We keep the workflow centered on verifiable counterparties and clean paperwork.
LionSilica treats gold as a governed, compliance-heavy lane where AML and KYB checks, title verification, custody paths, and assay documentation matter more than hype.
The intake can evaluate institutional buyer and title-holder submissions involving DMCC-compatible structures or African origins. No active route, verified counterparty, or available inventory is implied until evidence clears review.

Suppliers must establish title or control, traceable provenance, assay support, and the ability to satisfy custody and compliance review before a lane can be treated as qualified.
DRC- or West Africa-origin submissions can enter review only when documentary proof, compliance evidence, and an operationally realistic custody path justify continued diligence.
