# Partnerships

XRB DAO is directly integrated into the gold supply chain. We work with top mining companies worldwide such as Kerix Jad ([https://kerixjad.com](https://kerixjad.com/)) to ethically source gold, collaborating with local authorities to ensure legal compliance in taxation and export of precious metals.

All gold is refined using environmentally friendly practices, with all origin certifications and documentation maintained for compliance.

This direct involvement allows XRB DAO to bypass broker chains, creating a mine-to-market process with minimal commercial intermediaries—only government offices necessary for regulatory compliance are involved.

These partnerships enable us to streamline the gold sourcing process while maintaining ethical and legal standards.
