SourceSwiss Precious Metals Transparency Platform supplier map. Appearance establishes that the company is named in a refiner published sourcing list for the stated year, NOT a sourcing edge — the platform own FAQ states that the parties it lists as suppliers are in fact its customers, which is precisely why no SOURCES_FROM edge is drawn from this dataset.Origingold-hubObserved2026-09Asserted2026-09-11
