I’m John Michael, Compliance & Documentation Lead based in Khartoum. I oversee every shipment’s paperwork from mine gate to refinery intake: verified origin certificates, valid export licenses, LBMA-aligned assay reports, and GPS-timestamped sealing logs. If any element doesn’t match the physical consignment the shipment halts.
I verify every shipment at source: origin confirmed, licenses valid, assay matched, seal intact. If the digital dossier doesn’t align with the physical batch it doesn’t leave our yard.
My role isn’t to find opportunity. It’s to enforce consistency: one seal, one weight, one set of documents. That’s how refineries trust what arrives at their gate.
