A purchase starts with the transaction structure
NAAC supports the purchase, processing and export of precious metals and stones. Contractual terms, the seller's authority, shipment provenance and a documented supply chain are essential. An attractive price and product photos cannot replace substantive work with participants and documents.
Refining and analysis
NAAC works with partner refineries in West and East Africa with stated capacity of up to 1,000 kg of gold per day; some have operated for over 15 years. Precious metal content is analysed through partner laboratories. ISO/IEC 17025 and the RJC Code of Practices are considered. The facility, test method and applicability of standards are determined for each shipment.
Metal quality
Initial purity may be around 97.X%, corresponding to 22-23 carat gold; refining to 999.9 may be arranged. Showing or melting metal on private premises does not establish shipment characteristics. Laboratory results and documents provide the basis.
Storage, export and transport
Storage, export documents, customs procedures and delivery to the chosen destination are agreed. Partners near international airports, banks and customs facilities help coordinate the supply chain. The digital service links these stages to the shipment and transaction passports.
