The mines are five different groups of peoples working on the sites for the mining and collecting of the raw pure gold in dust form before smelting it to dore bars which is 1kilo . Before our gold is been confirmed on his purity (96% plus ) it has to be tested at a government laboratory. We source most of our Gold (gold bars ) from local miners. This implies cheaper gold prices and supporting local gold mining communities. The cost of gold mining and extraction is cheaper in Africa compared to Europe or Asia hence reduced costs on refined gold bars from Africa.
