Product Overview
Dore bars are the intermediate product between mined gold and fully refined bars. They contain gold along with silver and base metals. Smelters in Uganda produce these bars from concentrates and nuggets. They offer refiners a cost‑effective source of material for their refining processes.

Production & Quality
Our dore bars come from established smelters that use traditional and modern methods. Each batch is sampled during pouring, and the average gold content is certified. We recommend final assay at your refinery for settlement.

- Lower purchase price per kilogram compared to refined bars.
- Ideal feedstock for refineries with spare capacity.
- Flexible payment terms based on final settlement assay.
- Steady supply from multiple smelters ensures availability.
Pricing & Ordering
Pricing is negotiated based on the current gold price and the estimated gold content. We can provide a provisional invoice, with final settlement after your refinery's assay. Minimum order: 100 kg (negotiable).
