# Problem and Solution

## Problem

Despite advancements in financial inclusion, many high-yield investment opportunities remain out of reach for everyday investors due to high entry barriers. The mining sector is a prime example.

While demand for ores like manganese continues to grow — especially with the rise of electric vehicles and battery technologies — direct investment in mining operations is still limited to large enterprises. That’s because owning or operating a mine requires:

* Substantial upfront capital
* Deep industry expertise
* The ability to manage an illiquid and highly regulated asset

Beyond that, mining involves complex logistics, high operational costs, and continuous compliance with environmental and legal standards. As a result, the sector remains exclusive, with limited paths for participation by smaller investors.

## Solution

Orebit is building a blockchain-powered platform to democratize access to the mining industry by tokenizing real-world manganese production. Through token staking, investors will gain proportional exposure to the revenue generated by mining operations — without needing to buy land, equipment, or manage logistics.

Our starting point is a licensed manganese mine located in Marabá, Pará, Brazil, deep in the Amazon region. The site already includes machinery capable of extracting up to 5,000 metric tons of ore per month. Funds raised from token sales will be used to activate full-scale operations, with all financial activity recorded on-chain for transparency.

To ensure a solid and compliant foundation, the team includes:

* Geologists and environmental consultants
* Legal and regulatory experts
* Entrepreneurs with experience in both crypto and mining sectors

Orebit’s goal is long-term sustainability, beginning with the Eagle Mine and expanding into a network of tokenized mine pools. Ongoing geological studies are already underway to confirm and expand total estimated reserves.

By bridging blockchain with real-world assets, Orebit offers a transparent, secure, and accessible investment model that opens the door for global participation in one of the world’s most profitable — and historically exclusive — industries.
