Blockchain Traceability
The use of distributed ledger technology to record and verify the provenance, custody, and movement of mineral products through the supply chain, from mine to end customer. Blockchain traceability provides immutable, transparent records of origin, enabling verification of responsible sourcing claims and compliance with ethical supply chain requirements. In gold and diamond mining, blockchain applications address consumer demand for conflict-free, sustainably sourced materials. Systems record mining location, processing, assay, logistics, and custody transfer data in tamper-proof digital records.
