African Gold Group Partners With SAFE Ltd in Providing Provenance and Transparency of its Supply Chain Process for Delivery of Gold

24.08.2020  |  GlobeNewswire

TORONTO, Aug. 24, 2020 - African Gold Group Inc. (TSX-V: AGG) (“AGG” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has partnered with SAFe Ltd. (“SAFE”), a company specialising in providing best in class advice and solutions for companies looking for provenance and transparency in their supply chains, advice on current and impending regulations, and improvement in ESG standards.

As a first phase, SAFE has created a Digital Supply Chain Map for AGG which will enable it to assess and address all risks along its future supply chain which could be subject to corruption or affected by conflict minerals regulation. The Digital Supply Chain Map also provides the backbone for implementing the right technology to show provenance and traceability. By beginning the process prior to operation allows the Company to develop a robust and risk-free supply chain of gold from production through to finished product. End-users will have access to this supply chain to ensure integrity at every step of the process.

“The importance of ensuring full transparency and provenance along every point in the supply chain cannot be underestimated,” says Danny Callow, Chief Executive Officer of AGG. “With a much more stringent regulatory framework due to be introduced on gold in the European Union at the beginning of 2021, as well as our own internal requirements to ensure that we operate at the highest levels of ESG, this partnership is timely in our evolution towards construction and operation.”

The Company intends to work with SAFE and its international partners to develop a complete solution which will provide full oversight of the production of gold through to the end-user. SAFe Ltd. combines expertise through legal partners, Squires Patton Boggs, skilled in conflict minerals legislation, supply chain and operational personnel with decades of experience in logistics of commodities in challenging countries worldwide, and technology partners able to put in place “best-in-class” systems including blockchain technology.

“Growing regulatory and commercial drivers mean customers increasingly need to mitigate risks in their supply chains,” says Dafydd Davies, MD of SAFE. “Regulation & market restructures are widening scope and increasing standards on players previously shielded from obligations. All players must align processes and controls that identify, assess, mitigate and report on risks to new and tightening global legislation. Combine this with the increasing focus on ESG from the investment community, and it’s clear the industry has a lot of work to do cleaning up its supply chains.”

In January 2021, the new EU Conflict Minerals Regulation will come into full force, and will include gold, as well as tantalum, tin and tungsten, known as 3TG. These regulations will ensure that EU importers of 3TG meet international responsible sourcing standards, set by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD). The regulations will also ensure that global and EU smelters and refiners of 3TG source responsibly, help break the link between conflict and the illegal exploitation of minerals and help put an end to the exploitation and abuse of local communities, including mine workers, and support local development.
