Cnt

Bar-level physical custody and chain-of-custody records for allocated precious-metals vaulting — the granular layer underneath the aggregated warehouse statistics that exchanges already publish. Per bar: refiner/brand and mint of origin (relationships named include Perth Mint, Royal Canadian Mint and The Royal Mint), assay/weight and fineness as certified at intake by an exchange-licensed weighmaster, serial and lot provenance, deposit and withdrawal timestamps, and the warrant/delivery status attaching the bar to a COMEX silver, platinum or palladium or an ICE gold/silver futures contract. Also holds monthly internal and annual external audit records, and — the genuinely unusual slice — retail IRA-eligible bullion deposit and withdrawal flow, which is a direct read on physical demand from the retail investor cohort that no exchange report, mint statistic or ETF disclosure captures.

Type: not stated
Format: Tabular custody ledger — per-bar intake, weighmaster certification and movement records keyed to client, metal, refiner and warrant status — held in the client-facing portal system, with audit and certificate documents behind it; PDF certificates and audit reports are the current external delivery form
Volume: Hundreds of thousands to low millions of individual bar records: a 63,000 sq ft precious-metals vault plausibly holds tens to low hundreds of tonnes of metal, and allocated bar-level segregation means every bar is a discrete record with its own movement history, so the ledger grows with each deposit, transfer and audit cycle rather than being a fixed snapshot
Users: Low hundreds to low thousands of custody accounts (inferred from an 18-person operation running a 63,000 sq ft vault across individual, corporate, governmental, IRA and CME-warrant client tiers, with a self-service client portal)
History: 8 years
Update frequency: not stated
Growth: Active — the depository is being actively repositioned as a distinct business line (a dedicated service vertical alongside precious metals and minting, with a refreshed brand and a client portal), and exchange licensure across both COMEX and ICE has been maintained rather than lapsed
Launched: Depository service launched ~2020-2021 (exchange-logo assets on the licensure section carry 2021/01 upload paths, and the depository was carved out as its own service page in that period) — the parent precious-metals dealer is considerably older
