Why are gold and silver so expensive?
Gold is a precious metal.
Its value is determined by its purity, which makes it an excellent store of value.
It is the second-most valuable metal in the world, after the platinum standard.
Gold is not very scarce.
Around 100 tonnes is produced every day and there are over 1,000,000 tonnes in the market.
Silver is the third most valuable metal, but its value is lower because it is harder to obtain.
Gold and silver coins are the most popular coins around the world.
There are many different types of gold and a gold bar is often referred to as a gold bullion coin.
Gold bullion coins are often valued at between $20 and $100.
Silver bullion bullion is worth less than $1.50.
Gold bar is the gold equivalent of a coin.
There is no value for gold bullions unless the gold is in the form of a gold ingot, which is a piece of gold metal in which gold has been melted.
A gold ingo is a thin gold bar of any shape or size, typically 10 to 30 centimetres in diameter, and weighing between 0.6 and 0.7 grams.
It can be used to make jewelry, coins and other coins.
There can be a number of different ways to melt gold ingots into gold.
Some methods involve heating the gold, some involves the use of molten metal, and some involves using steam to melt the metal.
The gold ingos are usually sold as gold bar.
The amount of gold used to melt each gold ingott depends on the purity of the ingot.
A 1.5 centimetre gold ingoted is roughly worth $150, whereas a 1.25 centimeter gold ingotted is worth $120.
Gold ingot purity varies from country to country.
The purity of a piece is generally based on its colour and thickness.
Gold coins and bars can be minted from either pure gold or silver.
Gold bars are usually made from the same gold as the ingots and contain approximately 30 per cent of the weight of the gold ingotes.
Gold coin designs can be made from either gold or a pure metal such as copper or silver, but the amount of pure metal varies widely.
Gold mining and mining activities are important in the production of gold ingolls.
Gold miners in Australia often use chemicals to melt and refine the gold.
The process produces a mixture of gold salts and water, which are then poured onto a steel plate to form a solid gold coin.
When melted, the gold deposits are deposited in a well-known ore pit and are known as gold mines.
There have been reports of gold miners having to carry out a dangerous and hazardous operation at the mine, which has led to the deaths of miners.
There has been a rise in gold prices over the last few years.
Gold prices have been rising by about 2 per cent a year, from $1,600 to $2,300 per ounce in August this year.
The average price for gold rose by about 20 per cent in the same period.
The world gold market is worth about $5.4 trillion.
In the year to March this year, the global gold market had $3.8 trillion in the trade, up from $2.5 trillion in July.
The global gold price index, which measures the price of gold relative to other commodities, was at $2199.
It rose by $3,100 to $2068.50 per ounce.
