Zimbabwe Gold Deliveries Dip 7.9% in September to 4.7
Zimbabwe’s national gold deliveries fell 7.9% month-on-month to 4,715.46 kilograms in September 2026, down from the 5,119.20 kilograms recorded in August, according to the latest data from sole buyer Fidelity Gold Refinery (FGR).
Despite the monthly contraction, the September output represents a massive 86% increase compared to the same period last year.
The monthly decline was primarily driven by the informal sector.
Deliveries from small-scale miners fell 14.6% to 3,398.32 kilograms, though.
