FAQ
Is the 5% annual gold interest?
No. Gold lease rate is 1%–2% and major gold tokens are zero-coupon; XAUg's 5% comes from mine surplus, carries mine risk, disclosed plainly.
Why must a full 1,000,000 USD be raised?
Equipment, installation and commissioning of one processing line cost 1,000,000 USD. This is not a target but the condition for the line to exist; if short, the line cannot be built and funds are handled as agreed.
Any return during the build phase?
No. Build and commissioning take 5 months with no output and no payout accrual. Of the 24-month term, 19 months are actual production, and all projections use those 19 months.
Where do payouts and redemption money come from?
Entirely from operating surplus — line revenue less on-site operating cost. No pooled fund, no maturity mismatch, and no paying earlier participants from later participants’ money. Full accounts on the Cash Flow & Payout page.
Does each XAUg map to gold?
Proposed: each token is a delivery claim on 0.01g LBMA refined gold (≥99.99%); mine-backed (not 100% vaulted), coverage disclosed truthfully.
How do institutions and large individual investors engage?
Institutions above 1,000,000 USD (2 seats); Large individual investors 10,000 – 1,000,000 USD (50 seats); both first come, first served. Site visits to Colombia follow confirmation — see the Participation page for the contact address.
How long is the lock-up?
Proposed 24-month conversion/lock-up; payouts accrue during the term, and at maturity you may redeem, extend or transfer.
Does the team hold keys?
No. Tech team is outside the multisig; treasury needs 3-of-5 plus 48h timelock; team 5.5% milestone-unlocked with clawback.
