until recently , the united states of america had the largest gold reserve, in my memory it was about 7.00 tons, a huge gold reserve, and then china became very quickly increase their purchases of gold, they do not disclose the volume they contain, but at the pace of purchases, at the quantity that china produces, i am sure that we are already talking about many thousands of tons of gold that the people's republic of china stores, i think this is correct ... politics, especially in light of the fact that we now see that currencies themselves are becoming an unreliable way of storing purchasing power for states, for governments, gold has been such an important means of preserving purchasing power for thousands of years value, not just by individuals, but by entire nations, entire states. over time, power came to large rich mines. technology, there are different estimates

by economists, in general, it is assumed that , according to some, the gold reserve of the ussr, at the time of the collapse of the ussr, was about 150-200 tons, this is nothing, according to others, it was even less, but just for comparison, this means in the fifty-third year at the time of stalin’s death, but the stock is estimated by various sources to be from 2 to 2,500 tons, this despite the colossal payments for lend-lease and... his sold in order to solve the economic difficulties that arose in the state. he imagined a very sad sight at the beginning of the nineties, the nineties, in general, the growth of gold reserves began relatively in 2000, and the most significant jump was about four times, and the gold reserves increased after the crisis of 2008, when our the country, and not only ours, in fact, india and china also began to actively expand. gold reserves,

demonstrated, yes, confirmed its status, i would say, in the sense that foreign currencies turned out to be frozen, but nothing with gold. if we don't wear gloves, fingerprints will remain on the surface itself. coins, these prints are not washed out later, they are still there, otherwise they will spoil the appearance, if you need to pull it out, that is, if say, a person wants to make sure that there is a certain

amount of gold in it, put it on the scales, he can also look at it using a micrometer, for example, measure its diameter, its thickness... coins, there are also non-destructive ways to control the chemical composition, that is, modern portable spectrometers allow you to direct the beam of the device to the surface of the coin to make sure that there is gold in the chemical composition that is not stated on this coin, this is, in principle , a problem with physical gold, because for gold...

i think that the interest of any average person, besides, where it is located in what volume and how it is physically stored gold, but in the interests of the security of the country it is stored in a distributed network and under very, very careful protection, of course, this information is not only chipboard for official use.

in price, in time, uh, that's probably what attracts people, that 's probably part of its magic. well, definitely the economic power of the country, and gold is a liquid asset, part of the economic component is certainly an important part of sovereignty. the country must have opportunities for development. we see that despite the sanctions, our economic growth is 3.5% year-on-year, while in europe there is a decline everywhere. but a lot today also depends on people, on how they

metallurgical plants, automobile factories, which led to the fact that germany sold quite a lot last year, 2.5 tons of gold. government securities and risky investments, gold does not generate cash flows such as stocks, bonds or other flows, it is not affected by the actions and decisions of less-than-perfect people or

individuals in the global market, so when the perception of risk in global markets increases. harbors to protect against volatility, provides a certain stability of security from shocks, because, well, we all now know, yes, that the national currency can depreciate, foreign currency can be frozen, blocked by the decision of other states, but with gold

it is very difficult to do such things, because physically most of it is located here, in contrast to that. or the euro, which is not in the central bank in russia, but in its accounts abroad, where they were frozen. in 2022 , the russian gold mining industry found itself in a difficult situation due to sanctions restrictions. companies have lost their established sales routes, and refineries have lost their international status, which allows them to freely sell their products on the world market. all our refineries have lost their good delivery status and good status. this is an international accreditation that the plant producing this ingot is guaranteed to produce four nines with a chemical frequency, that there will be no harmful impurities, everything we buy is physically so, and it becomes a story that all buyers in russia they say on the line that we can no longer carry out these transactions, because the counterparty in

london will no longer pay us, and the bullion is now, as it were, without an international certificate. that is, at a certain moment, the gold miner hit a really bad patch, but everything got better, everyone learned how to work with international traders, who essentially now perform the function of this new buyer, so our main channels are dubai and hong kong , that is, now the gold miners themselves export all this their own refined gold, everyone learned, everyone resolved the issues with equipment, because in our mining industry, not all equipment is russian, we learned to transport everything, we established all our distribution channels, everything, that is, no one is losing anything anymore, that is, they returned buyers have learned to buy everything, the price is favorable, everything is fine with them, gold

is an ingot with a seal, in principle, if you have an authoritative one - that this is not carried out on a large scale, because why? well, returning to the gold mining industry, in russia it very powerful, very historically technological, but the volume of gold production over the last 30 years, especially 20 years
3:50 am
, has been growing significantly, in the nineties 142 tons, 143 tons per year. was mined, and in recent years we have been extracting more than 300 tons. last year it was about 332-33 gold. this is provided only in direct production by about 60.00 workers in the industry. the demand for gold is high, the market situation is high now. but we have found mechanisms in which we do not reduce production volumes, that is, we could say:

now, in addition to the fact that russia can no longer export gold due to sanctions. in theory, russia could build up its gold reserves quite quickly, and this could be a big advantage for the country because it... has unique access to gold and the ability to replenish reserves by purchasing it directly from producers. russia has almost zero tolerance for cryptocurrencies, and russia actually relies on what is available to it at the moment while it is under sanctions, so russia is betting on gold. the role of gold in this situation also, well, increases, because...

what we get for gold mining, unlike some switzerland, means that to obtain gold reserves we do not need to buy gold from our neighbors, we can use our own gold, which we mine ourselves. the introduction of western sanctions, specifically against the sale of gold, made it difficult to sell gold and led to the fact that our own gold component of our gold began to grow rapidly.

still quite modest, despite the fact that we have made a large number of discoveries, no one doubts that there is still a lot in the ground, so the combination of working out already discovered reserves, and we have balance reserves for today, if you look at the documents, about a quarter of a century of work, here we have russia can mine gold in the volume in which we mine it, which is about 330 tons of gold per year.
