When referring to precious physical metals, a ton refers to a metric tonne. The British ton (i.e., tonne with British spelling) is the metric ton of gold we use in the precious metals industry. A metric tonne is 2,240 pounds in total. Be careful not to make the mistake of using the U.S. ton as the short ton is only 2,000 pounds total.

One aspect of the depletion of gold mines that is very difficult to predict is how it will affect the spot price of gold. If demand continues to rise while available supply stagnates, basic economic theory of supply and demand would suggest that prices will rise substantially in the future.

About 244,000 metric tons of gold has been discovered to date (187,000 metric tons historically produced plus current underground reserves of 57,000 metric tons). Most of that gold has come from just three countries: China, Australia, and South Africa. The United States ranked fourth in gold production in 2016.All of the gold discovered thus far would fit in a cube that is

No one knows for certain how to calculate the total amount of gold ever mined, but the best guess is that around 190,040 tonnes of gold have been mined throughout history, reports the World Gold Council (WGC). Each year, mining operations extract about 2,500 to 3,000 tonnes of gold.

Thanks to many dedicated mining efforts, as much as 3,000 tonnes of gold is added to the global supply every year. This makes one wonder if such ongoing growth can even be sustained in the long run. While numerous mines note hefty increases in production, it will begin to level off eventually.

Although mineral values are often expressed in tonne, sometimes they are expressed by ton as well. As 1 ton equals 907.18474 kilograms and 1 tonne equals 1,000 kilograms, just remember the difference between tonne and ton is approximately 10% (mnemonic: less letters, less outcome). For more information about how to calculate the metal value of a deposit as a whole, I recommend you to read …

Estimates for all the gold in the world mined to date hover around 165,000 metric tons. Some estimates go as high as 1 million tons but most experts would agree that under 200,000 is accurate. World gold supplies are difficult to quantify. That is because gold reserves are not always reported accurately.
