Mathew Barkes’ career in the precious metals industry commenced in 1997. His professional tenure spans nearly three decades of market volatility, encompassing the strategic management of gold and silver bullion supply chains and technical market analysis.
As the CEO of MintBuilder, Barkes directs the governance of physical asset procurement. Under his leadership, the platform facilitates the acquisition of sovereign-minted coins and LBMA-approved bars. Every unit, including verified secondary market inventory, is subjected to institutional-grade validation to ensure absolute metallic purity and liquidity.
Barkes is the author of the 2024 publication, "Crisis To Fortune: Using Sound Money To Flourish In A Bad Economy". This text serves as a definitive technical guide for households seeking to mitigate currency devaluation through physical asset allocation.
To eliminate counterparty risk, MintBuilder applies a non-destructive, three-tier scientific verification protocol to all inventory.
| Standard Operating Procedure | Institutional Control Detail |
|---|---|
| Metallurgic Assay | Tripartite Validation: Utilization of XRF Spectroscopic analysis, Mass-Density (Archimedes) calibration, and Ultrasonic structural scanning to verify .999+ fine metal content. |
| Chain of Custody | Direct-source procurement from sovereign mints and LBMA refineries. Secondary market assets undergo an identical re-assay protocol to ensure unbroken purity standards. |
| Underwritten Security | Tier-1 logistical transit underwritten by comprehensive specie insurance. Delivery of physical title requires verifiable digital identification upon transfer. |
At MintBuilder, you’re not just building your legacy with precious metal assets — you’re helping feed children around the world, giving them a chance to build a legacy of their own.
