Gold Bullion  |
Gold bullion is a bulk form of the precious metal used for trading on commodity markets. Gold bullion is usually cast into ingots or coins.
Gold bullion, a form of gold used to make trading easy, gets its value from the relative rarity of the metal itself. Value of gold bullion is further determined by the mass and purity of the coin or ingot. Most gold bullion is issued at 99.9% purity, although some goes up to 99.999% purity. Bullion is graded by "Troy ounce" which defines the weight of goldThursday, September 17, 2020 |

US Mint Bullion-Coin Sales 5 |
Gold’s first new
bull market since 2011 last year was overwhelmingly driven by stock
investors flooding into gold ETFs. Traditional physical
bar-and-coin demand was actually quite weak, falling considerably
year-over-year. Nevertheless, it’s still important to stay abreast
of classic gold and silver investment demand. One key microcosm of
that comes in the form of the US Mint’s sales of its popular
American Eagle coins.

The World’s largest Precious Metals Refineries |
There are many precious metals refineries throughout the world, some local to their domestic markets, and some international, even global in scale. Many, but by no means all, of these refineries are on the Good Delivery Lists of gold and/or silver. These lists are maintained by the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) and they identify accredited refineries of large (wholesale) gold and silver bars that continue to meet rigorous proficient standards of refining and assaying, and that are, atFriday, August 19, 2016 |

Fake gold and silver coins 'flooding' market |
In these uncertain economic times, you don't have to be a miser to consider putting some of your money into precious metals, and gold and silver coins are an easy way to do that.
But this increased demand for bullion coins -- like the American Eagle, South African Krugerrand, and Canadian Maple Leaf -- has created a golden opportunity for forgers.
Counterfeit coins are "flooding the market at an astonishing rate," and compromising the investments of collectors, according to the American NumismatMonday, June 13, 2016 |

Stop, breathe, think before buying gold. Because 'how' matters as much as 'when'...
BUYING GOLD has suddenly returned as a trend, writes Adrian Ash at BullionVault.
Searches for "bullion" online rose 77% in the last week, according to Google Trends. The price has now risen over 18% against the British Pound so far in 2016, jumping Thursday to its highest price for UK investors since September 2013 at £873 per ounce.

data continues to prove this false, showing precious-metals

THE “DEFLATION” BOOGEYMAN |
It’s Friday afternoon, and global stocks have had a very, very bad day. After the Chinese stock market closed for the weekend, its regulators, in their omniscient wisdom, decided to increase the amount of permitted “shortable” stocks. Consequently, Chinese stock futures fell 7%, pulling the rest of the world falling sharply as well.
With that pleasant introduction, I’ve been asked to comment on Harry Dent’s latest “deflation” warning; which I plan to enthusiastically discuss below. But first, aMonday, April 20, 2015 |

It's Not (Just) About The Gold  |
Since the beginning of recorded history, the lure of gold has drawn men and
women to it like a moth to flame. A Greek traitor told the Persian King Xerxes
about a secret goat trail that would enable his personal bodyguard, The
Ten Thousand Immortals, to outflank and defeat King Leonidas and the 300
Spartans in the mountain pass at Thermopylae. The asking price was his weight
in gold, which the Persians granted to him and then buried him with it.

Do Western Central Banks Have Any Gold Left Part III - Sprott |
By: Eric Sprott
Recent dramatic declines in gold prices and strong redemptions from physical ETFs (such as the GLD) have been interpreted by the financial press as indicating the end of the gold bull market. Conversely, our analysis of the supply and demand dynamics underlying the gold market does not support this interpretation. Many major buyers of gold are adding to their stocks, while at the same time supply is flat or even decreasing, compounding an already vast imbalance.
