The factors that have been relevant to date, such as monetary policy decisions by the US Federal Reserve, inflation, geopolitical disputes, and economic uncertainties, will continue to be decisive for the further development of gold prices. And there is no shortage of the latter thanks to the US president. Gold will always be the ultimate store of value.

Gold is also always a popular target for smuggling and money laundering. It is a matter of transparency, due diligence, and traceability. There are no uniform rules in the world. Turkey is introducing a comprehensive digital tracking system in April. This means that cash transactions will no longer be possible in the gold trade. Every gram of gold sold in Turkey must be marked with an official seal and accompanied by a certificate. This is therefore a step towards combating money laundering and financial crime.

Turkey’s reliance on gold as a safe haven is also reflected in the impressive figures for Turkish gold imports. In 2025, Turkey imported a total of 115.35 tons of gold. Countries that are currently particularly busy increasing their gold reserves include Poland and Brazil. Central banks around the world collectively hold around 36,000 tons of gold, and the trend is rising. And what applies to central banks also applies to private investors: gold secures assets in the long term and creates a cushion for uncertain times. Those who want leverage on the price of gold can turn to gold companies.

Newcore Gold – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/newcore-gold-ltd/ – is working hard on the Enchi Gold Project (100 percent owned) in southwestern Ghana, located on one of West Africa’s most productive and best-developed gold trends. The project has an indicated mineral resource of 743,500 ounces of gold with a grade of 0.55 grams of gold per ton of rock. Recent drill results have returned up to 174 grams of gold per tonne of rock.

Mayfair Gold – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/mayfair-gold-corp/ – controls 100 percent of the Fenn-Gib Gold Project in northern Ontario in the prolific Timmins District. A very positive preliminary feasibility study is already available. According to the company, the gold project contains 4.3 million ounces of gold (an indicated resource of 181.3 million tons of rock with a grade of 0.74 grams of gold per ton of rock).
