Miami, FL – October 17, 2025 – NatGold Digital Ltd. (“NatGold” or the “Company”) today announced the completion of its NatGold Resource Certification & Tokenization Agreement, establishing the definitive contractual framework that governs the onboarding, due diligence, and certification of gold projects seeking to qualify for tokenization within NatGold’s patent-pending digital mining ecosystem.

The completion of this Agreement—together with NatGold’s Tokenization Policies & Procedures (“TPP”)—paves the way for the formal onboarding of qualifying mining rights and gold resource titles worldwide. It provides the contractual and operational foundation for the extensive anti-money laundering (“AML”), technical, and title due diligence required before any gold resource can be approved as Certified NatGold Resources under NatGold’s internal criteria for tokenization and enter the NatGold Tokenization Queue for conversion into NatGold Tokens.

“With global demand for NatGold Tokens now clearly established and growing stronger each week, the timing for this milestone could not be better,” said Andrés Fernández, CEO of NatGold Digital Ltd. “The completion of our Resource Certification & Tokenization Agreement formally opens the supply side of the NatGold ecosystem—allowing gold rights holders from around the world to begin onboarding into our digital mining framework. It ensures that every project admitted into the Tokenization Queue meets our highest standards of transparency, title integrity, and technical compliance.”

Under the newly completed framework, every property submitted for tokenization must successfully complete three layers of due diligence—coordinated in parallel—to uphold NatGold’s standards of legality, accuracy, and integrity:

1. AML Due Diligence (Entity & Individual Review) – Led by NatGold’s AML Officer using industry-leading, third-party due-diligence and sanctions-screening resources (including beneficial ownership tracing and adverse media analysis).
2. Technical Resource Compliance – Conducted by independent mining engineering firms to assess and report on geological resources in accordance with NI 43-101, JORC Code, or S-K 1300 standards.
3. Mineral Rights Title Verification – Conducted by independent legal counsel to confirm registered ownership, title history, and the absence of encumbrances or secondary interests.

Only after all these three reviews are successfully completed does a project qualify as Certified NatGold Resources, making it eligible for tokenization under NatGold’s proprietary Digital Mining Cut-Off Grade and NatGold Tokenization Ratios.

“Now that the contractual framework is complete, our Tokenization Approval Compliance Committee can begin admitting qualified projects into the NatGold Tokenization Queue,” added Fernández. “This is where the supply side meets the demand side—and where the world’s most advanced approach to sustainable, resource-linked value creation officially begins.”

The NatGold Resource Certification & Tokenization Agreement functions as the binding legal counterpart to the Company’s TPP, seeking to ensure full transparency, legal protection, and alignment between NatGold, its mineral title custodian, and participating vendors worldwide.

This milestone marks the official commencement of vendor onboarding, positioning NatGold to begin certifying the first wave of qualifying gold projects for tokenization ahead of its upcoming global launch.
