History of gold mining 

The price of gold has increased approximately 4,750% since 1935 when President Franklin D. Roosevelt raised the value of gold to $35 per ounce1.


Gold prices in India are quoted in Indian Rupees (INR) and can also be converted into other currencies.

India is one of the largest consumers of gold in the world and has a strong cultural and religious affinity for the metal.


Gold prices are also affected by the performance of other precious metals such as silver and palladium, as well as the prices of crude oil, stock exchange indices, bonds, and currency exchange rates.


gold is a precious metal that has been associated with Southeast Asia since ancient times. The region was known to the Indian merchants of the 1st millennium BCE as Suvarnabhumi: 'Land of Gold', which is thought to refer to the mainland, including lower Burma and the Thai Malay Peninsula, and Suvarnadvipa: 'Islands of Gold', which may correspond to the Indonesian Archipelago, including Sumatra. Gold was also sought after by the Chinese, who were impressed by the quantities of gold present in the region.

Gold is distributed throughout Southeast Asia in igneous and metamorphic hard rock deposits and in sedimentary placer deposits. Some of the gold producing regions include the Philippines, Sumatra, Borneo, Timor, Malaysia, Thailand, Burma, Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. Gold first appears in the archaeological record in 400 BCE, at about the same time as iron, semiprecious stone polishing and glass working, suggesting that the techniques of gold extraction and working were introduced to Southeast Asia via Indian and/or Chinese merchants seeking gold ores .
