What is written
A reference to selected custody and transaction events — enough to prove a record existed in a given state at a given time.
Chain of custody
Traceability that follows the gold
FIQS tracks the supply chain from mine source through supplier onboarding, purchase, transport, refining and sale. Each custody event links to the relevant mine, supplier, documentation, approval history, risk status and transaction record.
Core record
Mine record, licence and GPS-verified site
Required evidence
Licence, site photographs, production log
Responsible
Site supervisor
Risk state
Site-level risk rating
Ledger references
What the blockchain component actually does
Selected custody and transaction references are recorded through Polygon, creating a tamper-resistant audit trail. Once written, the reference provides a durable point of comparison for due diligence, audit and counterparty review.
What is not
Not all platform data is held on-chain. Supplier files, documents and personal data stay in the platform, under its access controls and retention rules.
Single source of truth
