Gold Prices Hit Record Highs—Exploration in Atlantic Canada Gains Momentum

Posted by Paul Nanuwa at 2:51 PM on Wednesday, April 2nd, 2025

 

Introduction:

As global markets reel from mounting trade tensions and volatile policy decisions, one trend is crystal clear—investors are turning to gold in search of stability. Gold prices have surged to record highs, recently touching $3,177 per ounce. This flight to safety is reshaping the investment landscape.

Great Atlantic Resources (GR: TSXV) is positioned in the geopolitically stable and resource-rich region of Atlantic Canada, the company is emerging as a standout player amid the growing demand for critical metals and safe-haven assets.

Industry Outlook and Great Atlantic Resources’ Trajectory:

The current gold surge—driven by tariffs, recession fears, and currency instability—has created a tailwind for exploration-focused companies. Analysts forecast gold could climb to $3,500 per ounce within 18 months. Against this backdrop, Great Atlantic Resources is gaining traction with its high-grade gold assets and diversified critical metals portfolio. Operating in Newfoundland and New Brunswick, Great Atlantic offers the dual advantage of premier geology and low political risk, situating it well within this evolving market uptrend.

Voices of Authority:

Michael Widmer, Head of Metals Research at Bank of America, notes that the surge is “almost exclusively driven” by economic policy uncertainty, further validating the move toward gold-focused strategies. Meanwhile, certified financial planner Lee Baker emphasizes gold’s enduring role as a safe-haven: “When it seems like the world is going to hell in a handbasket, gold usually appreciates.” These insights align directly with Great Atlantic’s exploration model, which seeks to capitalize on long-term demand rather than short-term hype.

Great Atlantic Resources Highlights:

In response to the rising global demand for gold and critical minerals, Great Atlantic Resources has made key strides to strengthen its diversified portfolio across Atlantic Canada:

Golden Promise Gold Project (Newfoundland) – High-Grade Gold with Copper Upside

The Golden Promise Project continues to stand out as a cornerstone asset within Newfoundland’s emerging gold district. The latest NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate confirms:

  • 119,900 ounces of gold (Inferred) at an average grade of 10.4 g/t Au

  • 37,600 ounces of gold (Inferred) at 7.1 g/t Au

Recent trenching and sampling have further demonstrated both precious and base metal potential:

  • 0.964 g/t gold from a glacial float boulder

  • 0.481 g/t gold and over 1% copper from an outcrop grab sample
  • 0.537% copper from a float sample

These results confirm Golden Promise as a dual-target project for gold and copper discovery.

Nashwaak Lake Property (New Brunswick) – High-Grade Tungsten Potential

Located just 3 km northwest of the advanced-stage Sisson Project, Great Atlantic’s Nashwaak Lake Property positions the company in a strategic tungsten corridor. Key historical intercepts include:

  • 2.03% tungsten (2.55% WO₃) from a 2022 rock sample
  • 0.443% tungsten (0.558% WO₃) over 0.96 meters in a 2009 drill hole

These grades exceed the global average for tungsten deposits, highlighting Nashwaak Lake’s development potential in critical metals supply.

Southwestern New Brunswick Tin-Tungsten Project – Polymetallic Discovery Platform

Covering approximately 4,100 hectares across eight mineral claims, this newly acquired land package borders known deposits and historic producers. Historical data reveals:

  • Tin: 20.3% tin from a 1990 float sample at the Pughole Claim
  • Tungsten: 1.66% W (2.09% WO₃) from a 2020 prospecting sample at Flume Ridge
  • Indium & Zinc: 785 ppm indium, 18.6% zinc, and 0.32% tin over 1.2 meters (WP-08-23)
  • Silver & Lead: >100 ppm silver, 9.76% lead, 5.64% zinc, and 0.94% tin over 0.83 meters (WP-08-24)
  • Lithium: Up to 3,840 ppm lithium from 2019 float samples at Pleasant Ridge North

This multi-element project is emerging as a promising hub for critical and strategic metals exploration in Atlantic Canada.

Real-world Relevance:

Great Atlantic’s projects offer more than promising grades—they represent exposure to metals fundamental to infrastructure, electrification, and economic security. In a world where diversification is key, Great Atlantic’s mix of gold and critical minerals such as tungsten, lithium, and antimony reflects a broader strategy for navigating modern volatility.

Looking Ahead with Great Atlantic Resources:

With global uncertainty fueling investor demand for tangible, resource-based value, Great Atlantic Resources is building a portfolio designed for relevance in both gold bull markets and the critical metals renaissance. The company’s exploration momentum, resource-grade assets, and strategic geography set the stage for meaningful developments in the quarters ahead.

Conclusion:

As gold continues to break records and the search for secure, high-grade assets intensifies, Great Atlantic Resources presents a compelling opportunity rooted in geology, jurisdiction, and timing. For those seeking exposure to gold with upside in critical metals, Great Atlantic is a name to watch.

3.66 Million Ounces & Counting: Why Loncor Gold Could Be a Top Contender in Today’s Gold Market

Posted by Paul Nanuwa at 4:27 PM on Monday, March 31st, 2025

Introduction

As gold hits fresh all-time highs, driven by a powerful wave of safe-haven demand, companies with scalable, high-grade deposits are increasingly in the spotlight. One of the most compelling players in this landscape is Loncor Gold (TSX: LN | OTCQX: LONCF | FSE: LO5), an emerging gold explorer with a 3.66 million ounce gold resource at its Adumbi deposit in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. With gold trading above $3,150 per ounce and some forecasts suggesting it could reach $4,500 this year, Loncor’s continued drill success and proximity to Africa’s largest gold mine make it uniquely positioned to deliver.

Industry Outlook and Loncor Gold’s Trajectory

Gold’s performance in 2025 has been extraordinary. With 16% year-to-date growth and a new record high of $3,159.30 an ounce, the yellow metal is benefiting from heightened risk aversion, geopolitical tensions, and concerns about global economic stability. Major institutions like Goldman Sachs see the rally continuing, with a potential spike to $4,500 amid global tariff wars and monetary policy uncertainty.

Loncor Gold is aligned with this upward trajectory. Its flagship Adumbi deposit—the second-largest gold deposit in the DRC—is strategically located 220 kilometers southwest of the Kibali mine, owned by Barrick Gold and AngloGold Ashanti. The combination of location, grade, and growth potential places Loncor in a strong position to benefit from sustained bullish sentiment in the gold market.

Voices of Authority

Kitco reports: “Gold prices soared to more record highs overnight on keen safe-haven demand.” Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs anticipates the price “could briefly spike to $4,500 this year.” These authoritative insights reinforce the environment in which Loncor’s high-grade discoveries are being made—and the increased attractiveness of its asset base as ounces in the ground grow more valuable.

Loncor Gold’s Highlights

Loncor’s progress has been defined by focused execution and consistent delivery:

  • Flagship Resource Base: 3.66 million ounces at Adumbi with 1.88 million ounces categorized as indicated and 1.78 million ounces as inferred resources, making it the second-largest deposit in the DRC.
  • Location Advantage: Proximity to Kibali, one of the largest gold operations on the continent.
  • Drill Results: Recent holes (e.g., LADD028) returned high-grade intercepts such as 13.92m @ 6.01 g/t gold and 0.87m @ 82.97 g/t gold.
  • Exploration Upside: Drilling continues below the current $1,600/oz pit shell, targeting expansion and future underground mining potential.
  • Ownership: Loncor holds an 84.68% interest in the Imbo Project, giving it significant control over future development.
  • Compelling Valuation: Based on current gold prices, the Adumbi project’s post-tax net present value (NPV) is estimated at approximately $2 billion, underscoring its Tier-1 potential.

These achievements have helped position Loncor as one of the most promising exploration-stage companies in Africa’s gold sector.

Real-World Relevance

Loncor’s story is about more than drill holes and assays—it’s about the transformation of geological potential into economic opportunity. In a world where gold’s appeal is rising due to instability, the real value lies in scalable, high-grade, and strategically located deposits. For investors, Loncor represents a rare opportunity to gain exposure to a gold project with Tier-1 scale adjacent to some of the most productive assets on the continent.

Just as central banks, institutions, and governments turn to gold for security, retail and institutional investors alike are increasingly drawn to companies that can offer leverage to rising prices through resource expansion. Loncor sits at that intersection—backed by data, geography, and momentum.

Looking Ahead with Loncor Gold

As drilling at Adumbi continues into 2025, Loncor’s focus remains fixed on growing its resource base and advancing toward Tier-1 status. The company’s next milestones include deeper drilling, potential underground modeling, and advancing technical studies that can unlock further value. In a gold market filled with uncertainty and opportunity, Loncor offers clarity of purpose and upside potential.

Conclusion

Loncor Gold’s high-grade discoveries, strategic location beside the Kibali mine, and expanding resource base are all converging at a pivotal moment in the gold market. With prices climbing and demand for high-quality assets intensifying, Loncor is not just reacting to the market—it is actively shaping its future within it.

Loncor Gold Aims To Expand High-Grade Discovery Amid Soaring Gold Prices

Posted by Paul Nanuwa at 10:25 AM on Friday, March 21st, 2025

Introduction

As gold continues its upward trajectory, nearing record highs and gaining for the third consecutive week, investor attention is squarely focused on producers and explorers best positioned to capitalize on this momentum. Loncor Gold (TSX: LN) (OTCQX: LONCF) (FSE: LO5), a Canadian gold exploration company operating in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, is gaining relevance as its drilling campaign at the 3.66-million-ounce Adumbi deposit delivers strong, high-grade results.

With macroeconomic instability, global trade tensions, and geopolitical conflicts fueling demand for gold as a hedge, Loncor Gold’s strategic timing and location within Africa’s prolific Ngayu Greenstone Belt have positioned it to benefit from the sector’s upward trend.

Industry Outlook and Loncor Gold’s Trajectory

Gold has surged 16% year-to-date, marking 15 all-time highs in 2025 alone. The rally is driven by a mix of geopolitical unrest, fears of trade disruptions, and expectations of monetary easing. Analysts at Macquarie now see gold climbing to $3,500 per ounce, underlining the asset’s role as a stable store of value.

This trend directly benefits companies like Loncor Gold, which holds one of the largest gold deposits in the DRC, second only to the Barrick-AngloGold Kibali mine. As inflation remains sticky and central banks hold rates, explorers with scale and grade in geopolitically significant jurisdictions are increasingly on investor radar.

Voices of Authority

“Gold has benefited as the White House prepares to announce another wave of tariffs,” the BNN Bloomberg article notes, adding that “Macquarie Group forecasts [gold] could rise as high as $3,500 an ounce.” With bullion trading near $3,057/oz, the support for safe-haven assets is clear.

These insights highlight the relevance of projects like Adumbi, which are becoming more economically attractive in light of rising gold prices and investor appetite for tangible, growth-stage assets.

Loncor Gold’s Highlights

Loncor’s operational strategy continues to deliver:

  • Foundational Resource: 3.66 million ounces defined, including 1.88 Moz in indicated and 1.78 Moz in inferred resources.
  • Location Advantage: Situated 220 km from Kibali, Africa’s largest gold mine—positioned on the same geological belt.
  • Advanced Exploration: Recent drill holes such as LADD028 returned 13.92m at 6.01 g/t gold, including 7.94m at 9.54 g/t and 0.87m at 82.97 g/t.
  • Scalability: Drilling continues below the current pit shell, targeting further resource expansion and underground potential.
  • High-Grade Focus: Successive holes (LADD027, LADD028) have delivered multiple high-grade intercepts, supporting the project’s Tier 1 potential.

Real-World Relevance

Loncor represents a tangible opportunity to participate in gold’s global resurgence. The company’s Adumbi deposit is not just a number on a page—it’s a physical asset in the ground, drilling results in hand, and development potential in motion. As gold prices soar, ounces in the ground become increasingly valuable—particularly when they’re backed by strong data, favorable location, and a reliable operating record.

Loncor’s focus on expanding Adumbi mirrors the strategy of larger producers, but with greater upside given its exploration-stage valuation. In a world where investors seek assets uncorrelated to equities and currencies, Loncor’s growth narrative offers both scale and scarcity.

Looking Ahead with Loncor Gold

As drilling at Adumbi continues, Loncor remains focused on elevating the deposit to Tier 1 status. The company’s technical team, capital position, and strategic location in the DRC provide a clear path to expansion. With results continuing to confirm both grade and continuity, Loncor appears to be aligning its operational performance with an increasingly favorable macro environment.

Conclusion

In an era of economic uncertainty, gold’s value as a safe haven is proving more resilient than ever. Loncor Gold’s consistent exploration success, location beside one of Africa’s premier gold mines, and growing resource base make it a standout in the emerging producer space.

As global trends fuel further gold upside, Loncor is positioned not just to benefit—but to lead.

Loncor Gold Begins Drilling at Adumbi, Targeting Expansion of 3.66 Million Gold Ounces

Posted by Paul Nanuwa at 9:18 AM on Tuesday, February 11th, 2025

Loncor Gold Inc. (TSX: LN) (OTCQX:LONCF), a Canadian gold exploration company active in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), has resumed an ambitious drilling campaign at its flagship Adumbi project. The initiative is part of a broader strategy to expand the company’s resource base and position its high-grade deposit for Tier 1 status. This development is especially timely given the growing global demand for gold and renewed investor interest in African mining assets.

Background and Context

Loncor Gold has built its reputation over two decades of operating in the DRC’s Ngayu Greenstone Gold Belt. Focused on the Imbo and Makapela Projects, the company has made significant strides in delineating gold resources in this underexplored region. The Adumbi deposit, Loncor’s flagship asset, currently holds an indicated resource of 1.88 million ounces of gold and an inferred resource of 1.78 million ounces, defined within a USD1,600-per-ounce open-pit shell. This latest announcement marks the restart of deep drilling at Adumbi—now extending 11,000 meters below the open pit—and scout drilling on four additional targets along a 14-kilometer structural trend.

Key Highlights and Advantages

Loncor’s renewed drilling program is designed to unlock further value in the Adumbi deposit and its surrounding prospects. The main points include:

  • Deep Drilling at Adumbi:
    Two rigs have been mobilized to explore beneath the existing open pit, where the banded ironstone host thickens with depth, hinting at potential for additional high-grade mineralization.
  • Scout Drilling on New Targets:
    An additional rig is conducting a 12-hole (2,400-meter) scout drilling program on four exploration targets (Museveni, Esio Wapi, and Mungo Iko) located 8 to 12 kilometers southeast of Adumbi. Early results, including a high-grade intercept of 1.18 meters at 69.7 g/t Au in one hole, are encouraging.

Potential Impact and Significance

This drilling program has the potential to significantly increase the known gold resources at Adumbi, moving the deposit closer to Tier 1 status—a classification reserved for the highest quality and most economically viable assets. Expanding these resources could enhance Loncor’s market value and attract further investor interest, reinforcing its standing as a leading junior explorer in the African gold sector. Moreover, the scout drilling on additional targets may uncover new zones of high-grade mineralization, further diversifying the company’s asset portfolio.

Expert Opinions and Analysis

John Barker, CEO of Loncor Gold, commented on the recent developments:

“After some logistical challenges during the peak of the rainy season, drilling has now commenced on the deep drilling program at Adumbi that has the potential to push the high-grade deposit towards Tier 1 status. In addition, scout drilling along a 14 km structural trend is showing encouraging results.”

Industry analysts view this renewed focus as a positive step, noting that effective deep drilling and thorough quality assurance protocols are essential for unlocking the full potential of African gold assets.

Challenges and Considerations

Despite promising early results, Loncor faces several challenges, including logistical complexities in remote regions and the inherent uncertainties of deep drilling. However, the company’s extensive experience in the DRC and proactive operational strategies position it well to navigate these obstacles. Ongoing efforts to optimize drilling efficiency and maintain robust quality control will be critical in mitigating potential risks.

Conclusion

Loncor Gold’s strategic resumption of drilling at its Adumbi project and along its 14 km structural trend represents a significant step forward in expanding its high-grade gold resources. By leveraging its proven track record and rigorous exploration practices, Loncor is well-poised to enhance its asset value and offer investors a compelling opportunity in the global gold market. As the company continues to unlock the potential of the DRC’s rich mineral landscape, stakeholders are invited to monitor its progress and consider the long-term benefits of this promising venture.

With 4 Million Ounces of Gold Under Control, Loncor Gold Launches Deep Drilling to Expand High-Grade Resources in the DRC

Posted by Paul Nanuwa at 11:38 AM on Friday, November 1st, 2024



November 1, 2024
— Loncor Gold Inc. (TSX: LN) (OTCQX: LONCF) (FSE: LO5), a Canadian gold exploration firm with deep roots in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), has announced the start of an ambitious 11,000-meter deep drilling program at its flagship Adumbi deposit. This initiative, combined with scout drilling on several other promising targets along a 14-kilometer structural trend, signals Loncor’s determination to strengthen its position in Africa’s gold sector and expand its gold resource base in the Ngayu Greenstone Belt.

With significant resource potential already established, this new drilling effort aims to unlock Adumbi’s deep-seated high-grade mineralization, positioning Loncor as a leading contender in high-grade African gold assets. For investors, this announcement highlights an important phase for Loncor’s growth strategy, underscoring the company’s commitment to becoming a key player in sustainable gold mining in Africa.

Background and Context: Loncor’s Path to Success in the DRC’s Greenstone Belt

Founded as a Canadian venture with expertise in gold mining, Loncor Gold has focused its activities on the Ngayu Greenstone Belt in northeastern DRC—a region rich in gold yet underexplored. Loncor has established itself through years of focused exploration, which has already identified significant gold resources at its Imbo Project, particularly in the Adumbi deposit.

Nestled just 130 miles from Africa’s largest gold mine, Kibali, Loncor Gold finds itself in great company. Ongoing drilling activities at the Adumbi Gold Project are particularly noteworthy, as they not only aim to expand resource estimates but also demonstrate a commitment to responsible and efficient mining practices.

Loncor’s extensive experience in the DRC, combined with its expanding resource base, has made it a recognized player in the region’s gold mining industry. The Adumbi deposit alone holds an indicated mineral resource of 1.88 million ounces of gold and an inferred resource of 2.1 million ounces. Now, the latest deep-drilling program aims to expand these numbers, exploring the untapped depths of the Adumbi deposit, where gold-bearing structures may offer even greater yield potential.

$1.3 BILLION IN AFTER TAX VALUE AT GOLD PRICE OF $2,000OZ

Boasting an after tax value of $1.3 billion at a conservative $2,000 per ounce, Adumbi promises an average annual production of 303,000 ounces of gold over a decade-long span, with its resource base still expanding. With a mining permit already secured, the path is paved for Adumbi’s development, poised to unlock significant value for Loncor Gold and its stakeholders.

$12 MILLION IN CASH & RECEIVABLES

The company has $12 million in cash and short-term receivables which is due to a recent sale of a non-core property and that cash will be put to work on the company’s Adumbi open pit gold deposit.

Key Highlights and Advantages of Loncor’s Drilling Initiative

Loncor’s newly announced drilling program is designed to leverage and expand Adumbi’s gold resource by tapping into the deposit’s deeper levels and associated structures. Some of the key aspects of this drilling initiative include:

  • 11,000 Meters of Deep Drilling: Targeting deeper mineralization beneath the established Adumbi open pit, where prior assessments revealed promising grades.
  • Open at Depth: The current resource remains open at depth, and this program aims to identify high-grade gold zones that could significantly add to Loncor’s total resource.
  • Strategic Structural Trend: Alongside the Adumbi deposit, Loncor is conducting scout drilling on four nearby exploration targets within the same 14-kilometer structural corridor, revealing promising intersections.

Preliminary results from the Museveni prospect within this trend show visible gold and high-grade intersections, an encouraging sign that underscores the potential of Loncor’s regional approach. By exploring the entire structural corridor, the company aims to maximize its impact, not only at Adumbi but across its neighboring prospects.

Potential Impact: Expanding Resources and Building Value

The new drilling program holds the potential to elevate Loncor’s status within the high-grade gold segment, attracting investor interest and potentially driving future revenue. If successful, the program could push the Adumbi deposit towards Tier 1 status—a classification reserved for the highest-quality, lowest-cost gold deposits. This would solidify Loncor’s foothold in the DRC’s gold mining sector, providing long-term value for shareholders and investors.

In addition, the preliminary assays from scout drilling are promising. Hole LIDD003 at the Museveni prospect has delivered grades of 69.7 g/t and 22.9 g/t gold in different sections, indicating the possibility of new high-grade deposits within reach of the main Adumbi site. These results will be closely monitored, with future assays providing further clarity on the region’s broader resource potential.

Expert Insights: The Significance of Loncor’s Move

“After some logistical challenges to get all the drilling equipment to site during the peak of the rainy season, drilling has now commenced on the deep drilling program at Adumbi that has the potential to push the high-grade deposit towards Tier 1 status,” stated John Barker, CEO of Loncor Gold. Barker’s optimism reflects Loncor’s confidence in the geological prospects at Adumbi and the surrounding areas. He adds, “Scout drilling has commenced on a number of targets along the 14 km structural trend to the southeast of Adumbi, and we are starting to get encouraging results.”

Loncor’s strategy is also notable for its logistical prowess, successfully navigating difficult terrain and seasonal challenges to bring specialized drilling equipment to the site, showcasing its commitment and operational expertise.

Challenges and Considerations: Navigating Depth and Logistical Constraints

While the potential of deeper mineralization at Adumbi and nearby prospects is promising, deep drilling programs come with inherent challenges. The logistical demands of transporting heavy drilling equipment through remote regions and the variable weather conditions in the DRC can impact timelines and budgets. However, Loncor has demonstrated resilience in overcoming these issues, showing its capacity to manage the unique demands of operating in the DRC.

Additionally, the natural challenges of drilling at greater depths may result in complex structural conditions that could impact the accuracy and effectiveness of assays. Loncor’s team has implemented rigorous quality assurance and quality control protocols, partnering with SGS Laboratory in Tanzania to ensure reliable and consistent results.

Conclusion: Loncor Gold on the Brink of a New Phase of Growth

Loncor’s ambitious deep drilling initiative at Adumbi and exploration along a prospective structural trend showcases a company poised for growth. By targeting high-grade deposits at depth and expanding exploration along the structural corridor, Loncor is strengthening its position in one of Africa’s most promising gold mining regions.

For investors, this development underscores Loncor’s commitment to resource expansion and potential revenue growth, positioning the company as a high-potential opportunity within the gold sector. With promising early-stage assay results and an experienced management team, Loncor is primed to make significant strides in gold exploration, signaling a bright outlook for the company and its stakeholders.

  • Worldwide holdings have rebounded since 2016 on rising demand
  • Goldman Sachs has forecast further gains in bullion to $1,600

Gold’s faring extremely well as a haven asset, with inflows into exchange-traded funds hitting 1,000 tons since holdings bottomed in early 2016 after a prolonged unwind in the wake of the global financial crisis.

Total known ETF holdings expanded to 2,424.9 tons on Wednesday, the highest since 2013, following inflows over the past three years and a continued build-up in 2019, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Current assets are about 1,000 tons higher than the post financial crisis nadir of 1,425.1 tons.

Gold has surged this year as investors seek protection from slowing global growth, the incessant trade war, and turmoil in the bond market that suggests the U.S. may be headed for another recession. The rise has been aided by a rate cut from the Federal Reserve and expectations more will soon follow. This week, veteran investor Mark Mobius gave a blanket endorsement to buying bullion, saying accumulating the precious metal will reap long-term rewards.

Others are also bullish. Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has said prices will climb to $1,600 an ounce over the next six months. The bank’s global head of commodities research, Jeffrey Currie, said that gains are likely be fueled by demand for ETFs as well as increased central-bank purchases. Spot gold traded at about $1,500 on Thursday, up 17% this year.

There’s a powerful constant amid the to-and-fro of the U.S.-China trade war as currency policy gets dragged into the standoff between the world’s two top economies: Beijing wants more gold in its reserves.

China’s central bank expanded gold reserves again in July, pressing on with a run that stretches back to December. The People’s Bank of China raised holdings to 62.26 million ounces from 61.94 million a month earlier, according to data on its website. In tonnage terms, the inflow was close to 10 tons, following the addition of about 84 tons in the seven months to June.

Gold has rallied in 2019 to a hit a six-year high as global growth stutters, central banks including the Federal Reserve eased policy, and the festering trade war all combined to bolster demand. Increased central-bank buying from China to Russia and Poland has helped to buttress consumption at a time of rising prices. This week, the conflict between Washington and Beijing worsened as the yuan was allowed to breach a key level, reinforcing the case for havens.

“It is important for the country to diversify away from the U.S. dollar,” Philip Klapwijk, managing director at consultant Precious Metals Insights Ltd., said before the PBOC’s latest figure was released. “Over the long run, even relatively small-scale gold purchases add up and help to meet this objective.”

Gold futures rose as much as 1.3% to $1,503.30 an ounce on Wednesday, the highest since 2013, before trading at $1,500.70 at 11:26 a.m. in London.

“This fits with China’s well established pattern of increasing gold reserves month after month but not in a large enough volume to disrupt the gold market,” said Ross Strachan, a senior commodities economist at Capital Economics Ltd. “We expect them to continue this trend as part of their long-term strategy to diversify their foreign exchange reserves.”

Central banks continued to load up on gold this year, helping push total bullion demand to a three-year high in the first half, according to the World Gold Council. That trend is expected to continue, with a survey of central banks showing 54% of respondents expect holdings to climb in the next 12 months.

“Bear in mind that China is the largest mine producer of gold in the world,” Klapwijk added. “The state can always buy local mine production using” local currency, he said.
