A Few Gold Facts

Postal Gold — Fri, 11 Nov 2011 14:38:40 +0000

Gold is a metal that has been of high importance in many societies throughout history. This precious and unique material has always been in high demand, and is so even today. Not only is it beautiful, it is also one of the most resistant metals. It won’t tarnish, it won’t change colour, crumble, or be affected by most solvents. All of this adds to the uniqueness of this mineral.

The perception of gold has changed fundamentally in the past ten years.

Gold powers the internet. It underpins our economy. It is the bedrock of a portfolio. It is the catalyst for future revolutions in science. It expresses love in many languages. And it carries memories across a variety of generations and cultures.

Central banks in India and China are looking to increase their holdings of gold. Gold prices have been rising because of continued concerns over Europe’s debt crisis. Growing demand for gold jewellery in developing economies is also helping to raise the price of gold.

We are seeing an explosion of interest in the use of gold in science and technology also exciting breakthroughs are occurring regularly within some of the world’s leading academic and industrial institutions, like cutting-edge therapeutics, novel diagnostics, new antimicrobials, improved catalysts, cleaner air, water purification, energy efficiency and advanced consumer electronics just to name a few. The many valuable properties of gold mean that its technological applications are all around us, right now, from the automotive industry, to electronics, medicine, nanotechnology, space and even engineering.

Gold will play an even more pivotal role in the development of new technologies central to man’s progress.

Gold Changed the World!

Postal Gold — Mon, 09 May 2011 08:09:37 +0000

Ever wondered why gold is so expensive? Gold is currently high in value and always has been because there actually isn’t that much of it around and there has always been such a huge demand for it. As much as it is easy to think that gold is everywhere, if all the gold mined on earth was distributed equally to the 6+ Billion people on this planet, each person would only have 20 – 25 Grams.

There was a time where to some populations, gold seemed to be everywhere. These times were called, The Gold Rush. Most of the gold rushes were in the 19^th century in countries such as Brazil, Canada, South Africa, and the United States, while smaller gold rushes took place in other parts of the world.

Gold rushes around the globe changed history. Gold Rushes meant that it gave anybody the opportunity to become rich if they discovered enough gold. This of course meant that people wanted to follow where the money was, which then caused huge amounts of immigration.

Who knows what the world would be like today if there was no such thing as gold?

Appearance of Gold

Postal Gold — Thu, 24 Mar 2011 10:41:45 +0000

As many other chemistry elements, the gold appeared in nature due to a nuclear fusion. When the solar system was formed, 15 billion years ago, kernels of the atoms hydrogen and helium, the simplest elements, have combined in the highest temperatures, originating complex elements like gold. In planet heart the gold appeared in the form of atoms that were hosted by structures of other minerals. But the amount is very small. To give an idea: at the planet’s surface, only 5 in each billion of atoms are gold. Gold deposits appeared millions of years ago due to geological processes which modified heart’s surface. As result, nowadays we can find and extract gold from subterranean mines (up to 1,5km depth), very near the surface (50m) or even from a river. When a rock containing gold is found, it must go through a special chemical treatment so it’s possible to separate gold from the other elements.
In order to find new gold deposits, geologists need several sorts of information: satellite images, geological cracks, the presence of certain minerals and rocks which may indicate the presence of a deposit. Then is necessary to collect geographical information of the region, rocks, soil and sediments samples which may contain the metal.

Purchasing Gold

redaktion — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 16:44:17 +0000

Some say that gold is never a good investment, since with an investment you have an income return. But gold is a reflex investment, which means that you buy it because things are happening to other types of investment and not because something is happening to the gold itself. Therefore, investments in gold should be limited to 5 to 10 percent of the financial assets.
Others say that you can do no better than purchasing gold. You will hardly ever lose any money with the metal but it will give you a small interest. Especially when it comes to inflation or other troubles with currencies, gold is good to back up the income and secure what you have.
The point of view of a woman is: buy gold jewellery. I’ll wear it as long as it is fashionable and we can afford it. When we need money, we can sell the items to Postal Gold. Thus, purchasing gold is a good idea. Maybe one could also split up the assets and invest it partly in gold shares and partly in gold jewellery.
