What is a Digital Goldmine?
Gold has played a pivotal role in the global economy for thousands of years, and even after the abandonment of the gold standard, the yellow metal has remained an important part of many investment portfolios.
Today, whether in the form of bars, coins, ETFs, or digital tokens, gold’s enduring value continues to make it an attractive asset. However, mining a physical metal also comes with significant environmental costs.
In this graphic, our sponsor Nature’s Vault looks at the impact of gold mining and demonstrates how adding gold-linked assets to your portfolio can be an environmentally friendly alternative.
The Environmental Cost of Gold Mining
To start, gold mining’s environmental implications include deforestation, waste production, and carbon emissions.
The expansion of gold mines from 2000 to 2019 led to over 3,500 km² of deforestation. In addition, annual emissions are estimated to be around 126 million CO²e tonnes.
What’s more, approximately 99% of the ore extracted from gold mining goes to waste. Tailings, the main waste generated from gold extraction, contain high levels of heavy metals. When exposed to water or wind, these metals can leach into the surrounding environment, posing a variety of health risks and inflicting long-term harm on ecosystems.
After extraction, processing, and refinement, physical gold used as assets are stored away in vaults, raising the question: is the environmental cost justified?
The Solution: A Digital Goldmine
Nature’s Vault is decarbonizing the gold mining sector by creating digital assets like the NaturesGold Token and the Pistol Lake NFT that monetize the preservation of gold in the ground. As a result, the emissions and the environmental damage associated with mining are avoided.
So, how does a digital goldmine work exactly?
- Nature’s Vault identifies and evaluates mining rights with independently quantified gold deposits.
- They then acquire and maintain unencumbered legal titles to these mining rights to prevent the sale or exploitation of the underlying gold deposits.
- Finally, gold-linked assets are created by tokenizing mineral rights and preserving in-ground gold using blockchain and asset fractionalization.
This way, gold for investment can still be used without the associated damage of mining.

The GOLDEN Stablecoin represents an innovative fusion of natural capital investment and digital finance. It offers a tangible asset backing, with each stablecoin equivalent to 1 gram of in-ground gold, validated by independent assessments and secured through patented mining rights, owned by Nature’s Vault.
GOLDEN is created through a meticulous process involving the identification and acquisition of mining rights for gold deposits. These rights are held by a legally distinct entity with strict governance, ensuring the gold remains unmined. The quantity of gold, verified by an independent NI 43-101 report, is tokenized into GOLDEN stablecoins, with each coin representing a gram of gold.
GOLDEN is a gold-backed stablecoin, combining the historical stability of gold with the efficiency and security of blockchain technology. It provides a unique investment vehicle that is both stable and digital. GOLDEN is priced with a 70% discount to the spot price of gold, accounting for the unmined status and associated risks of extraction. This valuation method acknowledges the speculative nature of the investment while maintaining a tangible asset backing.
Nature’s Vault has acquired mining rights to a gold deposit located at the Pistol Lake Mine in the Thunder Bay area of Ontario, Canada. This region is a critical watershed for the great lakes and is home to a wide variety of wildlife and protected species.
This deposit is verified via an updated NI 43-101 report. A NI 43-101 report is a regulatory standard that mandates the disclosure of scientific and technical information about mineral projects in Canada. It ensures that all data presented is accurate, reliable, and verified by professional geological experts, offering a solid foundation for investor confidence.
Nature’s Vault have acquired Mining rights, which if mined, are estimated to result in the production of 150,000 troy ounces of gold being extracted.. To be safe, Nature’s Vault is only converting 125,000 troy ounces of gold into GOLDEN stablecoin. This equates to the preservation of approximately 3.54 million grams of gold underlying the Patented Mining Claims held by Nature’s Vault.
Mining rights are the rights to the minerals in, on and under the surface. Mining rights are not limited to minerals below the surface.
As a holder of GOLDEN, you are making a commitment to never have the gold in the ground extracted. Nature’s Vault is the custodian of that promise, and is committed to never mine the gold. If that promise is ever broken, then as a GOLDEN holder, have a claim to the gold in the ground, which can be redeemed for the extracted gold. This is facilitated through a Gold Futures Contract, ensuring each stablecoin corresponds to a specific quantity of gold.
Because each GOLDEN stablecoin corresponds directly to 1 gram of in ground gold, issuance and management are critical. Nature’s Vault is working with a Tier-One provider of multi-signature security, multi-user policy controls, and advanced security configurations to ensure secure stablecoin minting, transfers, and wallet management. This ensure that each stablecoin is backed by 1 gram of Nature’s Gold as quantified by the relevant 43-101 report. Nature’s Vault also works with industry partners to ensure that it never creates more GOLDEN Stablecoins then it has gold in the ground. If Nature’s Vault wants to release more GOLDEN stablecoins, it must acquire and verify new gold holdings.
The total number of GOLDEN stablecoins minted will start at 2.5 million. Each stablecoin corresponds to 1 gram of in-ground gold. As additional patented mining claims with detailed NI 43-101 report are acquired and tokenized, the supply of GOLDEN will increase correspondingly to the amount of gold under management. This will be subject to approval through a robust governance framework.
GOLDEN is a digital representation of a specific amount of gold stored in the ground and secured by mining rights owned by Nature’s Vault. This approach combines the stability and traditional value of gold with the efficiency and security of modern blockchain technologies.
Valuation Principle: The intrinsic value of GOLDEN is tied to the market value of gold. However, instead of reflecting the current market price (spot price) of physical, mined gold, it is discounted by 70%. This means if the market value of one gram of gold is $70 USD, the value of GOLDN would be $21 USD. This discount reflects the additional risks and costs associated with mining and extracting the gold.
GOLDEN's trade value in relation to gold, considering the 70% discount, provides a unique investment proposition that blends the speculative nature of mining ventures with the intrinsic value and stability offered by gold as an asset, adjusted for the risks and costs associated with its future extraction.
