Our Gold

Our Gold – Responsibly Sourced, Traceable Gold from Across Africa

At Great Lakes Gold Origins Ltd, we supply high-quality, responsibly sourced gold through a structured African gold mining, trade, supply, and export network operating across East Africa, Central Africa, West Africa, Northern Africa and Southern Africa.

Our gold is sourced from verified mining regions, tested and validated through independent assay processes, and supported with complete documentation to meet the requirements of international buyers, refineries, and institutional partners.

We offer multiple gold product types depending on buyer requirements, destination markets, and refinery specifications, with full coordination of sourcing, trade, and export execution.

Alluvial Gold (Nuggets & Flakes)

Sourced from verified gold-producing regions across Africa—including the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sudan, Tanzania, Ghana, and Zimbabwe—our alluvial gold is supplied in natural nugget and coarse flake form through a structured and compliant African gold sourcing and export network.

This category of gold is recovered from riverbeds and surface deposits using artisanal and small-scale mining methods across multiple African regions. The gold is then aggregated, cleaned, and prepared for trade and export under controlled and traceable supply chains.

Purity typically ranges between 90% and 94%, making it suitable for international refineries and buyers who prefer raw, naturally occurring gold for further refining and processing.

All supply is supported by independent assay testing, full documentation, and coordinated export execution in line with international trade and compliance standards.

Gold Dust / Concentrate

We supply high-quality gold dust and concentrate through a structured African gold mining, trade, supply, and export network operating across East Africa, Central Africa, West Africa, Northern Africa and Southern Africa.

Our gold dust is sourced from trusted miners, cooperatives, and verified supply channels in key producing regions including the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Sudan, Uganda, Tanzania, Ghana, and Zimbabwe.

This category of gold is produced primarily through artisanal and small-scale mining processes, where raw material is extracted, concentrated, and prepared for trade under controlled and traceable supply chains.

Purity typically ranges between 85% and 92%, making it suitable for international buyers with refining capacity or those working with partner refineries for further processing and doré production.

All supply is supported by assay testing, verified documentation, and coordinated export execution in line with international trade and compliance standards.

Gold doré bars

Our doré bars are sourced from Democratic Republic of Congo, Sudan, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Ghana, and Zimbabwe through licensed and compliant supply channels.
They typically have a purity of 95% to 98% and come in various weights.
This product is preferred by international refineries in destinations such as the UAE, Switzerland, India, Turkey, Other parts of Asia and Europe.

Doré bars are semi-refined gold products produced from primary mining and initial smelting processes. They typically contain a mixture of gold and other metals such as silver and are intended for further refining.

Purity generally ranges between 95% and 98%, depending on origin and processing conditions, and bars are available in various weights to meet buyer and refinery requirements.

All doré supply is supported by independent assay testing, full documentation, and coordinated export execution in line with international trade, compliance, and refinery standards.
