MiningProvenance

Why this is canonical

'Provenance' signals a richer claim than lineage alone — not just chain-of-custody, but origin authenticity and the ability to make certified assertions about where material came from and under what conditions. For nickel, which draws scrutiny around artisanal mining, environmental damage, and geopolitical sourcing, provenance is the cornerstone of responsible-sourcing narratives. .com is the enterprise-ready credential.
