What is Gold?

For many years gold has taken a backseat to the dollar and other fiat currencies. Today gold is the safest store of wealth available on the planet. During man`s time only 170,000 tons have ever been mined. Bright yellow in color, gold is dense and highly malleable. 1 oz. of gold can be flattened into a sheet 300 square feet. Jewelry consumes 50% of all the newly mined gold globally, with 40% for bullion and 10% being used in industry. China is currently the world’s top gold producing country. For several centuries Chinese culture has considered gold a store of wealth. The Chinese government still encourages domestic ownership of physical gold. To say that gold is conservative, is an understatement!
