About the metal

What is Gold?

Gold is a precious metal valued for its scarcity, malleability, and resistance to corrosion. It does not tarnish, conducts electricity efficiently, and can be drawn into wire one micron thick. The spot price is quoted on the London Bullion Market and the COMEX futures exchange, and reflects the price of immediate physical delivery of investment-grade bullion — typically 99.5% pure or higher.
