Customer Reviews

Well Researched

The author of this book did his research well. This book isnot a get rich quick scheme concerning gold, but more like a modern history of gold. It explains where Au comes from, how it's sold, who buys/controls it, why, etc.,etc. Interesting.

The amazing world of gold

To someone who is not aware of how gold comes out to final consumers or the industry, this book will illustrate, in a very interesting and easy-to-read pages, all the non seen facets of the most searched metal on earth. When you get jewellery made out of gold ,you would never guess that recovery plants must move over one ton of rock and material to bring up just a few grams of the precious metal... I strongly recommend this book to people of the jewellery trade and to those who are interested to know more about the strategic world of gold.MIGUEL GÓMEZ-MOLINA graduate gemologist (G.I.A.)U.S.A.-(I.G.E.)SPAIN-GERMAN GEMOLOGICAL INSTITUTE.
