Most Gold Production
Understand most gold production: what the measure counts, how to read it and where to check the source.
Gold mine production measures newly extracted gold. It differs from refinery output, which may process imported material or recycled metal, and from central-bank reserves. Geological deposits matter, but production also depends on operating mines, costs and permissions. Annual estimates can be revised as company and government reporting improves.
