HANUMAN WATER DEPOSIT
PERMANENT RESERVE OF HANUMAN WATER DEPOSIT – GROUP III
The Liquid Legacy of Chapada
The total permanent reserve volume of the Hanuman Water Deposit is 75.4 million m³. To put this into human scale, a person weighing 75kg drinks an average of 1m³ of water per year. The annual exploitable reserve of the Water Deposit is estimated at 3.77 million cubic meters, which corresponds to approximately 10,328 m³ per day or 430 m³ per hour. This volume represents about 5% of the Total Permanent Reserve (RPT) and sets a conservative limit for sustainable extraction, serving as a safe parameter for commercial pumping.
This estimate is part of an in-depth study², currently in the publication phase, which complements previous work published by Elsevier in January 2022 in the journal “Groundwater Sustainable and Development”. Titled “Hydrochemical and age constraints of the Chapada dos Veadeiros”³, the study was prepared by geologists and professors from the Institute of Geosciences at the University of Brasília (IG-UnB). In it, the Water Deposit is identified as belonging to the hydrogeological basin of Group 3.
The first commercial well of the Water Deposit, Well/Spring Hanuman I, has a tested flow rate of 95 m³/h, operating 14 hours per day – resulting in a daily production of 1,335 m³ (485,000 m³/year).
The planned pre-sale of HWT will make available 500 million tokens, representing 500,000m³ of water, over the course of 5 years. In the first HWT pre-sale, scheduled for 2025, 100 million tokens will be made available, each backed up by 1 liter of water. This represents 100,000 m³, equivalent to only 20.6% of the annual production of the Well/Spring Hanuman I – a deliberately conservative volume that ensures sustainable scalability and room for safe expansion of the operation.

The Hanuman Water business model represents an innovative convergence of hydrogeology, technology, cryptoeconomics, and distributive economics. The tokenization of a multimillennial resource, with an initial price of US$2.00 per liter, enables a pre-sale of 100 million HWT, meaning the exclusive right to access 100 million liters of Hanuman Water.
By uniting hydrology, blockchain, and circular economy, Hanuman Water transforms Chapada dos Veadeiros into the world’s first territory where natural resources are converted into digital assets, redefining wealth as a vital, traceable, and ethical good. HWT is a smart contract with the Earth: each token guarantees access to a vital resource, while its protocol ensures that this resource endures for future generations.
HWT is the first water tokenization project with scientific validations and auditable ESG impact.
MINERAL RIGHTS AND SURFACE OWNERSHIP OF THE HANUMAN DEPOSIT – GROUP III
Roots and Legal Foundation
The legal security of the Hanuman Water Token (HWT) is underpinned by a solid structure of mineral ownership and consolidated surface domain. Since 2020, Hanuman Minas Ltda has held 100% of the mining rights to the Hanuman Water Deposit, located in the municipality of Niquelândia (GO), through ANM process 860.360/2017, which covers an area of 48.96 hectares.
Beyond subsurface control, the partners of Hanuman Minas Ltda have also fully acquired the ownership of the surface and immediate surroundings of the Water Deposit, totaling 105 hectares. This dual control – mineral and territorial – ensures total autonomy and security for the project’s implementation, both in exploration and in the installation of bottling infrastructure, recreational facilities, and environmental preservation.
Furthermore, the complementary mining request ANM 860.317/2019, covering an area of 460.09 hectares also under the direct control of the partners, expands the project’s strategic reserve and protects the immediate vicinity of the Water Deposit area. This configuration reinforces the commitment to responsible, environmentally controlled, and legally shielded exploration.
This represents a rare situation in the Brazilian mining sector: a project with total synergy between legal ownership, territorial control, and direct environmental management – attributes that offer participants in the HWT ecosystem a high degree of operational security, institutional transparency, and traceability of the utility asset, backed by a real and technically validated Water Deposit. It is not a promise of financial return, but concrete access to a vital resource, under an innovative model of water governance and socio-environmental responsibility.
The areas currently under research authorization total more than 2,000 hectares distributed among the municipalities of Niquelândia, Colinas do Sul, and Alto Paraíso de Goiás, comprising the three hydrochemical groups of emerging waters identified along the São Joaquim Geological Fault. This set of mapped areas forms a multi-generational geothermal bank, with potential for sustainable industrial, therapeutic, scientific, and tourism developments over the coming decades.
