Mining & Metals
Quantify and price carbon intensity across metals supply chains
Context Labs incorporates asset-level emissions measurement into commercial transaction: introducing carbon cost and premium opportunity to the trade ticket, alongside price and volume.
The Challenge
Unverified carbon data has become a structural cost
Global import requirements, like CBAM’s definitive phase, apply a cargo-by-cargo financial penalty to organizations that rely on default emissions values. Major buyers and commodity financiers now require trade-specific carbon verification as a condition of deal execution. Facility-level averages, once adequate for voluntary disclosure, no longer satisfy the specificity requirements of commercial counterparties or regulators.
Capabilities
Manage at the asset. Differentiate at the cargo.
The same verified data that satisfies regional import disclosure can differentiate a cargo in the market. Context Labs incorporates asset-level emissions measurement into commercial transaction: introducing carbon cost and premium opportunity to the trade ticket, alongside price and volume.
Cargo-level regulatory scoring with auditable confidence intervals, accessible at the point of trade execution. Embedded carbon cost and compliance exposure alongside price and volume enable differentiated pricing, structured transactions, and more precise hedging. Trace-and-claim and book-and-claim workflows are natively integrated.
A provenance-rich data layer connecting IoT, operational, third-party, and certification data into a single emissions and attributes layer.
Standardized, auditable outputs for CBAM and GHG Protocol Scope 3. Regulatory exposure is surfaced at trade construction, converting a compliance exercise into a commercial input.
Technology
One platform. Verified data. Validated workflows. Any output.
The Context Labs platform ingests operational and enterprise data at source — operational data from the field, design and engineering data from capital projects, enterprise data from business systems, and contextually relevant external data — and seals it cryptographically into Asset Grade Data (AGD™). Our technology models the relationships between every asset, measurement, contract, and counterparty into a structured, governed graph.
The platform integrates natively with existing CTRM and trading environments, embedding verified carbon metrics alongside price and volume on the trade ticket without replacing existing workflows. Patented technology, ISO ontologies, and third-party verification capabilities provide the institutional defensibility that regulators and commercial counterparties require.
