For a growing class of investors, returns and impact aren’t trade-offs they’re requirements. If you can store wealth and help a community rise, that’s real alpha.
Congo Rare Minerals (CRM) turns bullion allocations into development partnerships: every purchase of our mine-direct Congolese gold fuels local schools, clinics, jobs, and core infrastructure with the documentation and liquidity sophisticated investors demand.
This is gold that builds.
Why Impact Now? (And Why Through Bullion)
- Portfolio alignment: ESG mandates and family office charters increasingly require measurable social outcomes.
- Proven hedge, new utility: Gold remains a macro hedge; pairing it with verifiable origin and community uplift creates a differentiated, defensible allocation.
- Price discipline at source: World reference ≈ US$105,000/kg vs CRM mine-direct ≈ US$75,000/kg → ~US$30,000/kg less (~US$930/oz), ~28.6% below reference—so you fund impact without overpaying for metal.

A: Yes – SGS assays, LBMA-aligned paperwork, and full chain-of-custody support intake with major vaults and dealers.
Q: What allocation sizes work best for first-time buyers?
