Gold – diversification, liquidity, portfolio performance, value preservation

The precious metal serves as an investment, jewelry, technology component and reserve asset. And the historical value has been preserved over time. Investors and consumers are increasingly looking to gold for responsible mining. The World Gold Council launched the Conflict-Free Gold Standard in 2012 to uncover links between gold and unlawful conflicts.

Finding gold is not easy, and developing and building a gold mine, starting with identifying a suitable ore body, often takes up to ten years. The highest concentrations of gold are found in South Africa, North America and Australia. In terms of deposits, there are primary, secondary and orogenic deposits. Primary gold deposits include epithermal ones, where the coveted gold is found near the surface (up to 1,500 meters deep). A separate type of gold deposit is the Witwatersrand type in South Africa. One of the world’s largest mines is the Witwatersrand mine, it houses the deepest mines in the world, namely up to 4,000 meters underground. When investing in gold mining stocks, the location of the projects, the mining friendliness of the region and the expertise of the management are important. A look at the cost of gold extraction is also of interest to gauge the lucrativeness of a mine. All of this helps investors understand the company. Promising gold companies certainly include Gold Terra Resource or Karora Resources.

Gold Terra Resource – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DVIit8R0UM – has an immense gold deposit in the Northwest Territories, namely its Yellowknife City project. Recent drilling has returned up to nearly 74 grams of gold per ton of rock.

Karora Resources – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PfAQqs2iYPM – is already a gold producer with its Beta Hunt and Higginsville mines in Western Australia. The target is to produce around 200,000 ounces of gold per year by 2024.
