metals (gold, diamonds, silver, bronze, aluminum, bronze etc). Gold

the guardian and protects all parties concerned against any business
malpractice and economic dishonesty. Especially when dealing with
foreign companies and buyers. We have
in our storage / safe keeping the precious metals of all registered and
reliable suppliers and their safe keeping receipts is at the National
Treasury.
The reason why we the government keeps the precious metals of miners
is also mainly due to security problems. As there have been constant
attacks and stealing from pirates and robbers who have been ambushing
local miners and do away with their precious metals. and even attacking
Bullion Vans (transport vehicles) killing workers and local security
agents. So, What is a Gold Mandate

the safe keeping house at ministry department of mines, geology and
technological development to stock their reserves of precious metals for
security reasons.

Why the mandate license is required: What is a Gold Mandate License?
The main reason why the mandate license is required is because mostly
buyers prefer to do Full CIF with the local sellers who don?t have
foreign experience and we have been getting a lot of complaints where
buyers don?t send all full payment
after final assay report at their refinery and so the information
received from the mandate application form will be registered in the
government database that should
in case a buyer or seller don?t meet up it will be easy to get the trace
and hand over the dispute to The ICC IMFPA/NCNDA.
This refers to two distinct agreements within the International
Chamber of Commerce (ICC) framework: the Non-Circumvention,
Non-Disclosure & Working Agreement (NCNDA) and the Irrevocable
Master Fee Protection Agreement (IMFPA). The NCNDA protects the
confidentiality of business information and prevents parties from
circumventing each other in business dealings, while the IMFPA ensures
the timely payment of intermediary fees and commissions.
Why the mandate license is obligatory for the buyer
In addition, due to CIF basis, the mandate license is obligatory for
the buyer because, we the government ministry department of mines and
geology stands to protect all parties concern for a successful trade.
most especially the buyer because we already have the gold of the
verified local miner / seller in our storage house and we are fully
responsible to help them till the end of the successful transaction.
That is the reason why once we issue the mandate license, the first
trial / tranche shipment will be accompanied by both our Ministerial
Diplomatic Freight Forwarder / Clearing Agent and the seller
representative. Who will meet with the buyer ?face
to face? then go to the refinery together till after final assay
results. Both parties will also decide on how the full / final payment
of the consignment will be made within 72 hours and after the final
assay report is out. The seller and the buyer will seat face to face
again and discuss, then sign a clear Contract-SPA. Depending on their
agreement with our Diplomatic Freight Forwarder / Clearing Agent as
witness to the aforementioned Contract-SPA.
Before the consignment (Precious Metal) takes off for delivery
Take note that before the consignment takes off for delivery to
buyer?s designated address or refinery. All necessary shipping documents
will be sent to your email for you to check if all your information is
entered correctly before we can submit for the final Airway Bill(AWB).
To come out and we shall send a copy to your end alongside the hard
copies of all shipping documents and the mandate license to reach you
days before the cargo arrives you destination. More so,
the flight schedules of the ministerial diplomatic freight forwarder
and clearing agent and the seller representative will be sent to your
