1. Market & Industry
1.1. Precious metals as an investment
Precious metals are unique assets: highly liquid, yet scarce; they have
emotional, cultural and financial value.

Investors range from individuals to pension funds and sovereign wealth


funds, and are located in both developed and emerging markets.

1.1.1. Our main precious metal: Gold

"The modern gold market is the picture of diversity and growth. Since the
early 1970s, the volume of gold produced each year has tripled, the amount of
gold purchased annually has quadrupled, and gold markets have flourished
around the world." *.

Key facts investors should know:

❏ Gold is a major asset driven by many factors, not just investment


demand.
❏ Gold is one of the most effective diversifiers.
❏ Gold provides competitive returns compared to other major financial
assets.
❏ Over time, fiat currencies, including the U.S. dollar, tend to lose value
against gold.

The combination of these factors means that adding gold to a portfolio can
improve risk-adjusted returns.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 4


1.1.2. Gold Demand

Gold is currently purchased by a far more diverse set of consumers and


investors than at any time in history.

Annual average GOLD demand:


~4.100 tons/ ~US$ 166 billions

Demand estimates by sector*

Gold's diverse uses, in jewelry, technology, investment and by central banks,


mean that different sectors of the market rise to prominence at different
times in the global economic cycle.

This diversity of demand and the self-balancing nature of the gold market
sustain solid qualities of gold as an investment asset.

100% due to rounding. Source: Thomson Reuters GFMS, World Gold Council.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 5


1.1.3. Another precious metal: silver
Silver investment is considered the little sister of gold investment, so much so
that silver follows the movements of gold very closely.

Facts and figures to be considered by investors:

❏ Although silver follows the movements of gold, it moves much faster.


For every 1% change in the price of gold, the price of silver varies by 3%.
❏ It is a safe investment, as it has always maintained its status as a
precious metal throughout history.
❏ It offers competitive returns, second only to gold.

1.1.4. Silver demand


Like gold, silver is purchased by a diverse set of consumers and investors, and
is used for a wide variety of purposes.

Annual average SILVER demand :


~25.000 tons*
❏ More than 54% is destined for industrial use.
❏ More than 20% is converted into coins and bars.
❏ More than 20% is used in jewelry.
❏ The remaining 5% is used in cutlery.

As we can see, silver is a metal with a fairly diversified demand, which plays a
positive role in maintaining its value as a precious metal. Industries such as
photovoltaics and electronic devices constantly use silver due to its unique
properties.

1.2. Gold
It is one of the most exploited
minerals since ancient times by
mankind. The uniqueness of this
mineral, due to its beauty and its
ability to remain unchanged
over time, has helped it to retain
its great value since the
beginning of history.

Among the physical properties


of gold are its high electrical and heat conductivity. It is also highly resistant to
almost all existing chemicals, except aqua regia (a mixture of hydrochloric
acid and nitric acid) and substances such as potassium or sodium cyanide,
the latter being used industrially to liberate gold (known as "gold
cyanidation").

Its ease of manipulation and its inalterability have allowed the jewelry and
ornamentation industries to use this material in an infinite number of ways
and uses.

1.2.1. Gold price

There is no doubt that gold is a highly valued commodity in the stock market.
In fact, there have been times when the price has risen very significantly, such
as in the 1970s, a decade that began with a price of $35 per troy ounce and
ended up rising to $850, a 2,300% increase in just 10 years.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 7


Experts point out that we are living in years in which an environment very
similar to that of the 1970s has been created; in fact, the pattern of behavior is
very similar.

Therefore, we are facing a positive outlook where experts, such as those at


ETF Securities, point to the possibility of inflation where negative real interest
rates are positive for gold.

1.3. The silver ore


Silver has been considered a precious metal for
more than 6,000 years, and was first used as a
currency by the Greeks in about 700 BC.

What makes silver the perfect metal for so many


of the sectors that make up the world's full
demand is:

❏ Its malleability and ductility.


❏ Its characteristic luster, due to its characteristic reflection.
❏ Its very high electrical conductivity, which together with its ductility
and malleability, makes silver the metal of choice in the technology
industry (along with gold).
❏ Its medical applications, being able, for example, to pass through the
cell walls of bacteria without damaging human cells, destroying the
reproductive capacity of the former.

1.3.1. Silver price

In the last fifty years, the price of silver has


quadrupled from just over $4 per ounce in
the early 1970s to almost $16.5 per ounce
today, twice topping $35 per ounce.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 8


1.4. What is mining?
Mining is defined as the activity that focuses on the search, exploitation and
extraction of minerals. It is one of the most important tasks within the
primary sector of the world economy.

Furthermore, it is one of the oldest activities in existence, with the same


needs to find and extract minerals still occurring today.

Depending on the type of mineral on which the mining activity is focused, we


can differentiate between metallic mining, such as gold, silver or copper, for
example; non-metallic or quarry mining, in which materials such as marble or
mica are extracted; and energy mining, which extracts fuels such as oil or
natural gas.

There is also what is known as green mining, which focuses on extractive


activities that minimize environmental risks.

1.4.1. Mining methods


When talking about mining, we must know what types of exploitation can be
found. Mining activities are distinguished between open pit mining and
subway mining.

A. Open pit mining

These activities are focused on the exploitation of minerals through stripping


or elimination of vegetation and the upper layers of the surface. In other
words, part of the soil is eliminated in order to access subway deposits.

This type of exploitation includes open pit mining, which consists of


extractions at great depths; or strip mining, with minerals closer to the
surface.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 9


B. Underground mining - Our mines

In contrast, subway mining, or subsurface mining, is based on the


construction of tunnels and galleries to access the minerals.

These galleries are accessed through what are known as adits. Subway
mining is a much more environmentally friendly activity than open pit
mining.

Subway mining can be divided, in turn, into drift mining, whose activity is
carried out in horizontal galleries; slope mining, in which the galleries have a
diagonal inclination; or shaft mining, where the work is carried out vertically.

Another division is according to the mining technique of the galleries, which


can be by sinking or by drifting.

1.4.2. The mining life cycle


In the mining activity, several work stages can be distinguished, which make
up its life cycle.

I. Discovery, prospecting and exploration

Work in a mine begins with its discovery. Here comes into play what is known
as prospecting and exploration, that is, those activities that focus on finding
out if there is any mineral to be extracted, how much there is and where it can
be found.

This work is carried out by geologists and engineers, in addition to other


specialists in different fields, who must make an exhaustive study of the
probabilities of success of the deposit, considering the size and grade of the
deposit, the initial investment, the risks and the soundness of the project.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 10


II. Exploitation

Once the mining company has assessed the probability studies of the project,
if the deposit found is viable, the planning of the extraction begins, the
obtaining of investment agreements and the search for potential buyers or
investors, among other issues.

Likewise, here comes into play the planning of the engineering to be used, its
costs, the legislation in force in the place of exploitation or the environmental
regulations in this regard.

1.4.3. Important concepts

When estimating resources to establish the economic viability of a mineral


deposit, the greater the number of samples obtained within the deposit, the
greater the reliability of the estimated resource.

Resources are classified according to the degree of reliability, with measured


resources being those of maximum reliability. They are defined with samples
very close to each other, which allows to confirm with certainty that the
intermediate resources between the samples really exist.

If the samples are further apart from each other, the degree of confidence in
the presence of ore between samples is reduced, although it can still be
estimated with some confidence. These are known as indicated resources.

Finally, inferred resources refer to those resources for which quantitative


estimates exist based on geological knowledge of the deposit in question, but
for which measurements and samples are not yet available, or are few and far
between. Therefore, the continuity of the deposit between the two samples
cannot be assured. These resources can be used for a preliminary economic
study.

Mineral reserves are that part of the mineral resources that - through the
feasibility study of a mining project - is shown to be really exploitable. In the
case of subway mining, only those mineral resources within the category in
which they have been measured and indicated, and which can be exploited
by a given mining method, should be included.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 11


Probable reserves are those resources, within the category in which they
have been indicated, that have been demonstrated to be extractable by a
particular mining plan.

1.4.4. Green Mining

If mining operations are not carried out correctly, they can have a significant
environmental impact, inflicting lasting damage over time.

The mining project involves three fundamental tasks: extraction,


transportation and processing of minerals. These include subtasks such as
subway and surface operations, the use of fertilizers and the construction of
structures. This, in addition to negatively affecting the environment, affects
the neighboring communities in the areas where these activities are carried
out, causing a negative impact (noise, pollution, etc.) on their well-being and
health.

In order to prevent all these activities from having negative consequences on


the environment, green mining exists.

In the case of Colombia, this type of exploitation is becoming the main


concern of mining companies in the country.

Green mining focuses mainly on five aspects:

❏ Community development: It is essential to ensure the well-being of the


people living near mining operations. Decent employment is promoted,
appropriate public structures are provided, and education and training are
encouraged for these communities.
❏ Conserve water: Companies are responsible for not discharging any
polluting substances into rivers, aquifers, seas or oceans.
❏ Protect the environment: They also undertake to maintain the landscape
as it was before any activity, using techniques such as reforestation.
❏ Conduct efficient mining activities: To make the best use of all available
resources, both technological and human.
❏ To use renewable energies: And finally, to take advantage of this type of
source with the objective of conserving the environment.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 12


Thanks to this, it can be demonstrated that mining activity does not mean
the destruction of everything that surrounds it, but that, if well developed, it is
beneficial for everyone.

1.4.5. Mining concessions


A mining concession can be defined as the set of rights and obligations that
the State in which the mine is located grants and confers to a natural person,
legal entity or the nation itself, so that it can carry out exploration and
exploitation activities on the land that has been requested.

In the case of Colombia, Law 685 of 2001 includes the Mining Code, which
establishes that the concession contract, established between the State and
another entity, also includes the phases of technical exploration, economic
exploitation or the benefit of the minerals, among other matters.

Such concession, as established in Article 61 of the aforementioned law, in


addition to being able to exploit the minerals contemplated in the contract,
offers the possibility of obtaining benefits from those others that are closely
linked or associated to them, or are obtained as by-products of the
exploitation.

Regarding the duration, concession contracts are agreed for a term of 30


years from the date of registration of the contract in the pertinent registry.
This term may be extended to continue with the exploitation phase.

Within this period, different stages are established: the exploration phase,
comprising the 3 years following the registration of the contract; the
construction and assembly phase, which includes the other 3 subsequent
years; and the exploitation phase, the remaining time.

However, an extension of up to 2 years may be requested, in order to


complete or add studies and works aimed at establishing the existence of the
minerals granted and the technical and economic feasibility of their
exploitation; and another extension, of up to 1 year, for the construction and
assembly period.

2. What is InnovaMinex?
Our ultimate goal is to make gold and other precious metals more affordable
for everyone, through our cryptocurrency, the "MINX", achieving the best
possible price for both our clients and our community, emphasizing
transparency and security in our transactions.

2.1. Mining Projects


So far we have several mining projects internally named GUAYAQUIL, LA
MARÍA, VIZCAYA, BOLÍVAR 2, ANTIOQUÍA 3, MINEX 7, MINEX 12 and TOLIMA,
which will start operating gradually.

The GUAYAQUIL project is already in the construction and assembly stage of


the processing plant. Ore is also being stockpiled for subsequent washing
and processing. The plant will start operations in 2021.

These projects are subway vein mining, which consists of extracting minerals
deposited in fissures, cracks or crevices of a rocky body and of a different
composition to the substance in which it is embedded. This allows direct
extraction of the mineral of economic interest with minimal impact on the
surface of the project site.

The mining titles are under the modality of concession contracts. Their initial
duration is 30 years, extendable for an additional 30 years. The starting period
for the oldest title begins in 2008, i.e., it can be extended until 2068. The
individual title areas range from 100 hectares to 600 hectares, which are only
exploited underground, with minimum surface occupations of approximately
2 hectares.

The first stage of the project, which consists of the exploitation of mineral
resources, is the beginning of a productive process of generating real wealth.
Gold, silver and, in some cases zinc, are extracted from the earth along with
other minerals that are not of interest, processed in a beneficiation plant and
taken to refining, where they acquire their highest purity. They are then
converted into coins and ingots, which is when they acquire their highest
value.

2.1.1. Vereda Guayaquil gold deposit
MinexCorp is currently working in Vereda Guayaquil, in the municipality of
Pensilvania, department of Caldas (Colombia).

This is an area in which, due to the importance of this region in mining issues,
there are settled leading companies in this sector at an international level.

Therefore, with this project on


the table, the corporation is
called to be a source of wealth
generation based on responsible
mining (with citizens, the
environment and all parties
involved in the project).

In this way, MinexCorp, with the support of InnovaMinex, expects to create


more than 3,500 jobs - direct and indirect - in the entire area of this project,
having a very positive impact, not only on the economy and the work of the
rural population of the area, but also on the general economy of the country.

In addition, this mining company, aware of the need to protect the


environment, advocates green mining, so it develops its activity with
techniques used in the extraction of minerals that produce a minimum
impact on the environment.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 15


I. Polymetallic mine

The Vereda Guayaquil mining project (Colombia) focuses on a polymetallic


mine, that is, a deposit where, in addition to gold, there are other valuable
materials, such as silver or zinc.

It consists of three veins: Guayaquil, La Morena and Vizcaya, in which inferred


resources of around 900,000 troy ounces of gold are estimated. The initial
exploitation target will be carried out on three sections of the Guayaquil vein,
where there are proven reserves in the order of 37,000 troy ounces.

II. Why this mine?

It is common knowledge that Colombia has experienced difficult years due to


the presence of guerrillas and paramilitary groups on its lands. However, the
recent peace agreement signed with the Government has opened the
opportunity to recover mining areas that since the 1960s, or even before,
could not be exploited with guarantees due to the presence of these groups
that were outside the law.

With the signing of the peace process, these mining titles are now in optimal
conditions for large-scale exploitation.

Thus, coinciding with the new climate of peace and the termination of a
license previously granted for the mine, we were able to unblock the
possibilities of exploitation and mining of this particular project.

III. Status of our first exploitation

Geological reports provided by external professionals have determined


proven reserves of around 37,000 troy ounces, measured over 2.5 hectares.

This calculation was based on the analysis of 347 core samples taken from
only a small portion of the entire deposit.

In the whole territory, in the absence of the necessary explorations to know


the total reserves actually present, 892,257 troy ounces of gold have been
estimated as inferred resources in the three main veins of the mine.

It should be noted that these estimates have been made not below 950 m asl,
and it could be that in some parts the gold vein extends to greater depth.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 16


Other sub-veins and drifts that could also contain some more gold reserves
have not been considered.

IV. Production costs

For the development of mining extraction, infrastructure contributions are


required for both the exploration and exploitation periods. This investment
can be significantly reduced due to several factors.

Among them, an initial processing plant of 100/150 tons per day is planned,
scalable to 500 tons. As profits are made during operation, the size of the
plant will be increased and, consequently, the volume of material that can be
processed in a day.

Another factor that reduces the initial investment costs is the decision to
carry out certain studies, analyses and sampling as gold is mined and
produced.

Only by opting for solutions such as these is it possible to reduce the initial
investment and for this project to generate a greater profit that can be
distributed among the community that has bet on InnovaMinex.

V. Safety and security checks

Safety, both for people and goods, is governed by the Colombian Mining Law,
taking into account the provisions of Article 97: "In the construction of the
works and in the execution of the exploitation works, measures must be
adopted and maintained and the necessary personnel and material means
must be available to preserve the life and integrity of the people linked to the
company and eventually of third parties, in accordance with the current
regulations on safety, hygiene and occupational health". However, as an
added value, InnovaMinex will commission, if and when necessary, external
audits to comply 100% with these regulations.

VI. Companies and licenses

Innovaminex participates in MinexCorp, which is the majority shareholder of


PENSILVANIA G&M, the Colombian company that carries out all the
exploration and exploitation works.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 17


This company has the rights over the concession of the mining titles IF5-11131,
IIB-08003X and IIB-08001, which make up the deposit of the more than 357
hectares subject to exploitation..

VII. Technical start-up times

At present, the exploration work has been completed and the exploitation
phase is now underway.

At present, the work and exploitation plan has already been granted in the
area and resources such as electricity and water are available.

Production is expected to start in 2021. Initially it will be an activity of between


20 and 150 tons per day, although it will grow to 500 tons per day..

2.1.2. Other mining projects

The projects LA MARÍA, VIZCAYA, BOLÍVAR 2, ANTIOQUIA 3, MINEX 7, MINEX


12 and TOLIMA total more than 2,500 hectares for exploration.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 18


In the next few years, the rehabilitation and construction of the guides will
begin, as well as the construction of the beneficiation plant for the extraction
of minerals.

2.2. E-Commerce
Electronic commerce or e-commerce, basically consists of the development
of market actions, sales, customer service, portfolio management, logistics
management and, in general, any commercial event and information
exchange carried out through the Internet.

Nowadays, e-commerce has become a successful tool in the business world


thanks to its availability and ease of access to the Internet.

The advantages of a well-developed virtual business are, on the one hand, the
expansion achieved in the globalized market and, on the other hand, the
speed with which business is developed.

The use and innovation of new technologies have generated changes that
have improved communication with the customer and the company.

Strengths of e-commerce:

❏ Creation of business opportunities and new ways of distributing


products and services.
❏ Access to customers in any geographic area without limitation.
Opening and expansion into new markets.
❏ Increased competitiveness and service quality.
❏ Rapid response to needs, and shorter or non-existent delivery chains.
This can result in lower final prices.
❏ Control of orders and customers.

Thanks to e-commerce it is possible to carry out almost any transaction


without leaving home. That is why we want to deploy a catalog of various
gold, silver and platinum products, oriented to the large cryptocurrency
communities. We will offer coins and ingots of 1g, 2g, 5g, and even 1 Oz, to
enhance and diversify the investment portfolio.

3.6. Block, release, and burn of MINX
All unsold MINX were blocked for 10 years. Starting January 26, 2020 (one
year after the end of the MINX sale), 10% of the unsold MINX will be unlocked
to the market. Thus, successively each year, 10% of the remaining MINX will be
unlocked.

3.6.1. Release of non-circulating MINX

MINX will be released every year from the cold wallet, for 10 years, from
January 26 to February 1 of the same year by transferring the amount of
26,390,000 MINX to the release wallet.

❏ Cold Wallet: 0xd40cc2a93c84bf220b25b5b9b2dc49136f775a3c


❏ Release Wallet: 0x3a6912f19250d91b28d03412d10a1818ed27a715.

From the release wallet, the MINX that can be distributed each month will be
2,199,166,666666 MINX.

A. MINX release conditions

In order to be able to release this amount every month, two conditions will be
checked:

I. The price of MINX must be higher than 0.50 USD (reference value in
Etherscan.io) during the two previous months.

II. The monthly volume must be at least 3,000,000 USD during the two
previous months.

B. MINX release clauses

1. The unlocking will be done on a pro-rata basis between the 12 months


of each year, thus trying not to damage the market price.

WhitePaper 6.2 - Last updated: 2023/01/25 - 25


2. If either of the above two conditions is not met, the MINX that should
be released to the market will be burned, thus making the value of the
tokens of all the users of the MINX community stronger. The review of
these conditions will be performed monthly.

3. The amount of MINX that in each monthly delivery corresponds to the


team, partners or developers, if any of the described conditions is not
met, will not be delivered and will be burned as well.

Part of the profits generated by the sale of MINX in these new phases (up to $1
per MINX), will be destined to our social projects (30%) and to our MINX Club
(70%), for the benefit of all users with MINX in their wallets.

Important notes of the release:

*MINX that are not released in one month because they do not meet the
conditions cannot be used the following month.
** The burning conditions will be reviewed every year to adapt them to
market and project circumstances.
***The reference value of the MINX price may be chosen for each year from
the best reliable source so as not to alter the conditions.
