In 2025, Georgia sold 1.9 tons of processed, semi-processed, and powdered gold, generating $122.3 million in revenue. While the total value was 122.9% higher than in 2024, the volume sold was 29.6% lower.
The gold was exported to three countries: Switzerland ($101.6 million), Turkey ($13.3 million), and the United Arab Emirates ($7.3 million).
Gold prices have continued to surge globally, with the metal’s value rising 6.5% in a single month to $4,740 per ounce, a historic high. Over the past year, gold prices have increased by 73%, with a 3.5% rise in the last week alone.
Experts link the price growth to rising economic and geopolitical risks, including the prolonged Russia-Ukraine conflict, instability in Venezuela, tensions between the U.S. and EU, and potential regime change in Iran, which are driving demand for safe-haven assets like gold and silver.
