Geopolitical tensions (Ukraine, the Middle East). The fall of the US dollar in 2025.
one hundred thousand One hundred ten thousand three hundred sixty-eight.200 tons of rock.30 milligrams.
Today, I’m going to talk about gold, and especially what happened to gold in 2025.Gold is one of the most important metals in the world. People have used it for thousands of years, and even today, it is still a symbol of power, money, and security. But in 2025, something very special happened: the price of gold exploded.The first important thing to remember is that the price of gold went up by 46.3%.This is a huge rise. Today, one kilogram of gold costs 110,368 euros.To give you an idea, one kilogram is about the weight of a bottle of water.So imagine holding a simple water bottle…which costs 100000 eurosBut why did the price go up so much?There are two main reasons.First, the US dollar fell in 2025. When the dollar becomes weaker, investors buy gold to protect their money.Second, there were many geopolitical tensions around the world: in Ukraine, in the Middle East, and in the South China Sea.When the world feels dangerous, people buy gold because it is considered a “safe property”.So the price increased very fast.Another important thing in 2025 was the discovery of new gold deposits.Two big discoveries happened: one in China and one in Côte d’Ivoire.These new mines could produce a lot of gold in the future.For China, it means more economic power.For Côte d’Ivoire, it could bring jobs and development, but also environmental risks.Mining gold is not easy. To extract one kilogram of gold, companies sometimes need to process up to 200 tons of rock.This can pollute rivers and destroy forests.So gold is valuable, but it also has a cost for nature.Gold is not only used for jewelry.It is also very important in technology.Every smartphone contains a small amount of gold, around 30 milligrams.It’s not much, but when you think about the billions of phones in the world, it becomes a lot.Gold is also used in computers, satellites, electric cars, and medical equipment.Without gold, many modern technologies would not work properly.Another interesting fact is that a big part of the gold we use today comes from recycling.Around 25 to 30 percent of gold each year is recycled from old jewelry or electronic devices.Recycling gold is much better for the environment than mining it.In the future, recycling will probably become even more important.To finish, gold is not just a metal.It is a symbol, a technology resource, a financial protection, and sometimes a problem for the environment.In 2025, the price of gold reached record levels because the world was unstable and people were afraid of losing money.New gold deposits were discovered, and technology continued to depend on gold.So even today, gold remains one of the most important materials on Earth.Thank you for listening.
