|XAU Nature Assets

“Gold gets dug out of the ground. Then we melt it down, dig another hole, bury it again, and pay people to stand around guarding it. Anyone watching from Mars would be scratching their head.”

Warren Buffett

It is time for us to author a new story on how humanity values nature - beyond the fragments it extracts from it - the value of life supporting ecosystems that underpin the global economy.

Asset Structure

|XAU structures each nature asset through a dedicated special purpose vehicle (SPV), where investors can join as quotaholders.

The SPV then enters into a long-term partnership with the landowner and nature stewards, securing a share of ecological rights in exchange for capital. This asset is originally priced as cost value - the cost of acquiring the land and financing its protection and conservation over a 30-year period.

The landowners and stewards are then responsible for delivering ecological results to the best of their ability — protecting and restoring biodiversity, to maintain the integrity of the ecosystem. |XAU then works to activate those results into financial value, structuring and monetising them through high-integrity nature markets.

Revenue generated is then shared between the SPV and the land owner based on equity split, while |XAU gets paid a commission if they led the sale.

|XAU DOES NO CHARGE ANY MANAGEMENT FEES, being paid purely on success - through its equity in the SPV and commission on sales it successfully generates for the ecosystem.

Asset Gaia

(Brazilian Pantanal)

|XAU's inaugural asset is a partnership with Onçafari, world leaders in jaguar conservation, located in a high-priority biodiversity area within the legal Amazon in the Brazilian Pantanal.

Named after the iconic jaguar who tragically perished in the 2024 wildfires, Gaia holds a percentage of ecological rights for the São Francisco do Perigara farm.

|XAU has invested $400,000 to cover legal and admin costs for the first 2 years, and is now raising US$5M which will flow in its totality to Onçafari to acquire ecological rights.

Investor quotas are currently priced at US$457 per hectare.
