Orizont sells through introductions. This proposal builds the first public, multilingual catalog of recovered precious-metal lots, with reference pricing and controlled assay release, starting with a $10,000 proof of concept.
Figures from Orizont's Q4 2026 company introduction.
This is the proof-of-concept screen. Change the tonnage or grade and the contained value follows. The assay request is the gate that keeps Anthony in control.
We reviewed the platforms a buyer would find first. None publicly lists secondary precious-metal lots with tonnage, grade and an asking price, and all of them are English only.
| Who | What a buyer sees without logging in | Languages |
|---|---|---|
| Metalshub | Marketing pages. Listings behind paid membership from about €5,000 a year. | EN |
| Open Mineral | Nothing. KYC-verified members only. | EN |
| Umicore · Heraeus · Johnson Matthey | Daily prices and accepted material classes. No lots for sale. | EN / DE |
| MetalsPlace and Alibaba-style boards | Low-trust listings, assays "on request", unverified sellers. | EN |
| Orizont, proposed | Structured lots with grade, reference and asking price, classification, and a controlled path to the full assay. | EN / RO, then ZH / JA |
The environmental record (99% of tailings mass recovered or reused, non-cyanide process, water recycling) is the sourcing story EU and OECD due-diligence rules push buyers toward. None of the comparables surface it.
orizont-deschis.com rebuilt from the existing brand. Company, materials, laboratory, processing, environment, contact. EN and RO. Interactive map of project sites.
app.orizont-deschis.com. Every lot with grade, reference price, asking price, contained value, classification and export status. Public.
Verified buyers only. Registration, beneficial-owner declaration, sanctions screen, then assay vault access and a tracked inquiry.
1337 IT handles listing changes, content and hosting. Anthony sees a short approval queue (new lot, price change, assay release) and taps approve. Nothing goes public without him; nothing waits on him for data entry.
Everything in Terraform on AWS. Encrypted storage, least-privilege access, access logs on every assay download, monitoring with a runbook for every alert. A provenance dossier per lot for buyers who ask.
Phase 1 and Phase 2 fees are confirmed at the end of Phase 0 once scope is verified with Anthony. Two revision rounds per deliverable; scope changes are quoted before work starts.
The buyer portal is where assay gating, compliance capture and inquiry tracking live. Without it the catalog creates interest but the follow-up is still manual.

Deposit of 50% at the start of each phase, balance on acceptance. Third-party costs (price feed, hosting, screening, translation) passed through at cost. Orizont owns all code, content and infrastructure; Phase 0 deliverables are Orizont's whether or not later phases proceed.
Review with Anthony and Kevin, then a 30-minute working session to confirm the inventory and assay workflow and pick the first lot. Phase 0 starts within five business days of signing.
