Applications

Gold, a natural currency, is characterized by its high liquidity and scarcity. To date, humanity has extracted only 200,000 tonnes of gold.

Gold is a hard currency, an investment vehicle, and a reserve asset. It is a strategic resource worldwide and the material basis for currencies. Central banks are a significant source of gold demand.

While gold continues to be highly sought after for accessories such as jewelry, it is also being innovatively used in technology, industries, and medical fields.
