This Series A lists on Open.Raise.

Critical.Minerals is the desk. Open.Raise is the vehicle. Sign in, file NDA, indicate a cheque. Two companies. One round.

Not an offer of securities. The live Series A room is on Open.Raise.

Workflow

Eight gates. Do not skip one.

  1. 01 Public intel

    Anyone

    Gate: None

    Home, periodic table, pitch PDF, share card. No numbers that are not already on the floor.

  2. 02 Attention

    X · Grok · WhatsApp

    Gate: A human shares a URL. We do not spray.

    Unfurl the card. A Grok answer that cites the product. A named intro on WhatsApp. That is the whole top of funnel.

  3. 03 Qualify

    Desk

    Gate: Fund name, LEI or equivalent, cheque band.

    Retail and tyre-kickers stop here. Family office, fund, or corporate development only.

  4. 04 NDA

    House counsel

    Gate: Signed one-way NDA (house template, Singapore law). Preview records it to a named seat.

    Unlocks the room. Does not unlock SWIFT, KYB bodies, or a cap table that does not yet exist.

  5. 05 Data room

    Vault ACL

    Gate: Role: GP, counsel, LP, house.

    Same moat as cargo: who sees which folder, where it sits, when it unlocks. View log is the evidence.

  6. 06 Partner meeting

    Chair (once hired)

    Gate: One hour. Path A or Path B chosen in the room.

    Do not mix the cheques. $24m desk or $2.4m stack. Not both from one seed.

  7. 07 IC / term sheet

    Their committee

    Gate: Their paper, our numbers as already published.

    Unit economics, moat under scrutiny, use of funds. No new model in the meeting.

  8. 08 Close

    Counsel

    Gate: Money in. Chair search starts the same week.

    Series A on Path A, or a product sale process on Path B. The room archives. It does not become a second company by accident.

Channels

What X, Grok and WhatsApp actually do.

Distribution, not CRM.

X

Share card unfurls. Intent tweet with the public URL. Founder posts. People ask Grok; Grok can cite what is already public.

We cannot buy Grok’s answers. We cannot scrape DMs. X Ads are optional later — not the first dollar.

A brief, on demand.

xAI / Grok

One click writes a 12-line partner brief from the public pack. Spends the app owner’s quota. User-initiated only.

Not a chatbot on every visit. Not a substitute for the Chair. Not due-diligence advice.

Where family offices actually live.

WhatsApp Business

Click-to-chat with a prefilled NDA request. Later: a utility template “room is open” — not a broadcast list.

Not a growth hack. Named intros only. Cloud API comes after a Meta business account — not this preview.

Open.Raise

The second company. Not a crowd round.

The raise, opened only for the right party. Open.Raise (openraise.capital) is the second company: vault + NDA + room as a permissioned hub for hard-asset raises. Separate cheque. No client-money from the desk. Not a crowd round — default deny, named seats only.

The raise path stays a rail on criticalminerals.market. Same vault. Same Chair. One company.

Do not fund Path A and Open.Raise from the same $24m. Mixing them produces a demo with two fake boards.
