How Standard Metal Units Are Created

Standard Metal Units are minted exclusively through the Global Gold Tokens module.

The process is deterministic and rule-based:

  1. An eligible gold or silver asset is submitted for collateralization

  2. The asset meets all Council-approved purity, form factor, refiner, and vault standards

  3. Legal title transfers to the jurisdiction-specific collateral trust or agent

  4. The asset enters the Availability Pool

  5. Standard Metal Units are minted equal to the verified fine metal content

No premiums, discounts, or discretionary pricing are permitted at mint.
