Getting to Know Gold Better

Where did the word “GOLD” come from? It comes from the Old English word "geolu," that means “yellow”

Gold can be found in every continent on earth

It is believed that there are around 80% of earth’s gold that’s still buried underground

There is also an estimated total of 10 billions tons of gold found in the world’s oceans - 25 tons of gold for every cubic mile of seawater

Gold is considered “rare” because the world has produced more steel in an hour than gold throughout history.

The melting point of gold is 2,063 degrees Fahrenheit

Gold is a great conductor of electricity

An ounce of gold can also be beaten and made into a sheet covering as wide as 100 square feet long.

Gold's value will never be affected in the event of economy or stock market crisis, or inflation. It was and still is one of the most highly valuable precious metals in the industry.
