Opportunity Knocked And They Answered
At EarthX 2025, Sara Jacobi joins Ernest White II, Storyteller of Conscious Capital Foundation, to discuss a unique 20-year journey sparked by an unexpected opportunity: an off-market gold mine.
In this highlight, Sara reveals how her family, with roots in real estate and stocks, consulted geologists and made an unconventional decision: to wait. With gold prices only at $300 at the time, excavation wasn’t economically viable. More importantly, they were committed to a conscious approach, refusing to monetize the asset in a way that would harm the earth or destroy other minerals on the property.
Now, with gold valued around $3500, Sara explains that the next step isn’t traditional extraction. Instead, she is focused on building a bigger narrative around real-world assets—exploring a crypto gold-backed model designed to preserve the gold in the ground while expanding access in an emerging market.
