Total ounces of gold and silver sold by The Perth Mint* in April 2012 as coins and minted bars:
Silver (Ag): 207,109.91oz
Gold (Au): 17,575.640oz
Compare with last month.
The rise in gold ounces sold compared to last month reflects a large order for minted gold bars that was returned in March due to a minor packaging issue and was delivered in full during April.
The reduction in silver ounces sold compared to last month reflects a dramatic about turn in the market for silver bullion products.
*excludes Depository and Perth Mint Shop.
