4 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Gold has been highly used as precious metal, a store for monetary value, jewellery and a valuable form of currency in the olden days. Gold is regarded as the most precious investment across the globe. It is usually found in mines and extracted through a process called mining.

    Gold has been mainly found in South Africa since the 1880's. South Africa had produced about 1000 tonnes in the Year 1970 which, historically, is a remarkable record. In the year 2004, South Africa produced around 350 tonnes of gold. Also, the city of Johannesburg has been built on top of the world's greatest gold finds. Another great example for gold is a city in India which is being built on the greatest gold deposits known as Kolar Gold Fields. The other major producers of gold are Australia, Canada and United States.
