Secure Armored Transport
Our armored convoy fleet is purpose-built for transporting gold bullion, precious metals, gemstones, and rare earth minerals. Every vehicle meets or exceeds RCMP security standards and is equipped with redundant GPS tracking, encrypted communications, and tamper-evident sealing systems.
Each shipment is accompanied by a trained armed escort team — many of whom are former Canadian Forces and RCMP personnel with decades of experience in high-value asset protection. Routes are planned using our AI-powered logistics engine, analyzing weather, traffic, road conditions, and threat intelligence in real time.
Facilities
Insured Vault Storage
Our network of 12 Class III vault facilities across Canada provides the highest standard of precious metals storage available. Each facility features reinforced vault construction, 24/7 armed security, biometric access control combining fingerprint and retina scanning, comprehensive CCTV monitoring with 90-day retention, and climate-controlled environments.
We offer allocated storage where your specific assets are stored separately, and pooled storage for different needs. Every asset is fully insured through Lloyd's of London for up to $500 million per facility, covering theft, fire, natural disaster, and other covered perils. Insurance is included in our storage fees.

Real-Time Satellite Tracking
Our proprietary RCL-Track platform combines satellite GPS, cellular networks, and IoT sensors to give you unprecedented visibility into every shipment's journey. Location data updates every 30 seconds, displaying live information on speed, heading, route deviation, temperature, humidity, shock events, and tamper seal integrity.
The platform includes configurable alerts — set thresholds for any parameter and receive instant notifications via SMS, email, or push notification. Historical tracking reports provide full audit trails for compliance, insurance, and governance purposes. Accessible from any device through our web dashboard or mobile app.

Customs & Regulatory Compliance
Navigating the complex regulatory landscape of mineral exports requires deep, specialized expertise. Our dedicated customs brokerage team includes licensed brokers with decades of experience in precious metals, gemstones, and mineral commodities. They handle every aspect of cross-border documentation, export permits, duty calculations, and regulatory compliance.
We maintain established relationships with customs authorities across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific. For diamond and gemstone shipments, we provide full Kimberley Process certification support. For controlled minerals, we manage all required government licensing and export control documentation.
Destinations
International Shipping
When your precious cargo needs to cross borders and oceans, our international logistics team delivers with the same security standards we apply domestically. We offer secure air freight through vetted carrier partnerships, and ocean freight through established maritime security partners — both with full insurance and end-to-end chain of custody.
Our network connects Canadian mineral producers to London, Zurich, Dubai, Singapore, Hong Kong, New York, and Tokyo. We provide door-to-vault delivery — handling everything from collection at the Canadian origin to final placement in the destination vault, maintaining physical custody at every transfer point.
