The NatGold Integrity Framework is a multi-layered system of legal structures, technical safeguards, and verification protocols designed to ensure that every Certified NatGold Resource is geologically validated, legally secured, and permanently protected. It is the backbone of trust and transparency for the NatGold Digital Mining Ecosystem, offering unmatched assurance that each NatGold Token is fully backed by real, in-ground gold—never extracted, never diluted.

At the core of the framework is NatGold Integrity Vault™ LLC, a Delaware-registered subsidiary that serves as the legal custodian of all subsurface mineral rights backing Certified NatGold Resources. Acting in a trustee-like capacity, it holds title on behalf of token holders and ensures that no tokenized gold can be physically mined. This structure is essential to maintaining the permanence and legal enforceability of NatGold’s non-extractive model.

Complementing this is the NatGold Core & Data Warehouse, a secure physical facility operated by NatGold Property Holdings LLC. Located in Delaware, the warehouse stores original drill core samples, geological maps, and technical reports submitted by participating mining companies. These materials form the physical audit trail supporting each tokenized resource. Samples are tracked by project, stored under video surveillance, and digitally linked to the NatGold Integrity Vault—offering real-world geological provenance alongside blockchain-based traceability. While public access is restricted, verified auditors, regulators, and credentialed professionals may request on-site inspection under strict protocols.

To further safeguard the system, NatGold has established the NatGold Contingency Fund, a reserve mechanism that sets aside 5% of all newly minted NatGold Tokens. Managed by NatGold Integrity Vault LLC, this fund serves as an internal insurance pool. If a Certified NatGold Resource is compromised—due to unauthorized mining, title disputes, or other breaches—the corresponding tokens can be permanently “burned,” removing the affected asset from the ecosystem and preserving overall token integrity.

Finally, the NatGold Community Watch program invites public participation in ecosystem monitoring. Through access to technical documentation, mineral rights data, and live satellite surveillance links, community members can help identify unauthorized activity.

Suspected violations can be reported directly to NatGold for investigation at the dedicated email address: surveillance@natgold.com, triggering immediate investigation. This democratized, transparency-driven approach ensures that accountability extends beyond internal controls to the broader public domain.

Together, these components form the NatGold Integrity Framework—a robust system of legal, physical, digital, and community safeguards that protects token holders, ensures asset immutability, and sets a new standard for trust in asset-backed digital finance.
