What is Gold Powder?
Gold Powder is fine gold powder (hs 7108.11) from milled concentrate, sourced from gold mined in Guyana and supplied by Guyana Gold Mines to buyers in Dubai and across the United Arab Emirates. We work with a network of more than 1,000 miners, mines, dealers and refiners throughout Guyana, which lets us aggregate supply, match almost any volume and secure the best available price. It sits in the specialist part of our catalogue and typically assays around 88% gold, within a working range of 85% – 90% Au.
Because it comes straight from the source, powder is priced and settled on its real, assayed gold content rather than on a fixed retail figure. That matters to professional buyers, who are paying for metal, not for branding. The material is drawn from Issano and Omai, and each consignment carries the Guyana Gold Board export documentation that lets an importer classify and clear it cleanly in the UAE.
Whether you are a refinery buying feedstock, a trader building monthly volume or a manufacturer securing supply, this page sets out exactly what gold powder is, how it is priced, how it ships to Dubai and how to buy it safely.
Purity, fineness and assay
Gold Powder typically runs at 85% – 90% Au, equivalent to a fineness of about 850 – 900. Natural and semi-refined gold varies lot to lot, which is exactly why the deal is settled on assay rather than on a headline number. Nobody serious pays a fixed price for an unverified purity.
We verify content using Melt and fire assay. Fire assay remains the reference method for settlement because it measures the actual gold recovered from a representative sample; XRF gives a fast surface reading for cross-checking. On arrival in Dubai the buyer, or a mutually agreed assayer, confirms the content, and the final invoice is calculated from that figure.
This assay-first approach protects both sides. You never overpay for material that under-assays, and we are paid fairly for material that meets or exceeds expectations. It is the standard the UAE's refineries and bullion desks already work to.
