Institutional Compliance & Verified Mining Licences
Operating Under Full DGSM Oversight and Responsible Sourcing Standards
Every ounce of gold recovered by Burlcore Mining Company Limited is a product of absolute formal compliance. We operate under full regulatory licensing transferred and maintained via Uganda's Department of Geological Survey and Mines (DGSM).
To meet global institutional standards, our supply chain and chain-of-custody protocols are strictly aligned with OECD Due Diligence Guidance and LBMA standards. We maintain documented on-site safety procedures, transparent governance logs, and environmental compliance audits to ensure a fully auditable path to refinery.
Compliance at Burlcore is not a document sitting in a drawer. It is an operational reality reinforced by daily site controls, formal handover records, and a governance layer accountable to the regulator and to our institutional counterparties.
