The country’s gold exports surged to US$487 million in July 2025, recent data by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe has shown.

Zimbabwe’s gold exports hit US$487m in July 2025, a 172% jump from US$179m last year.

This was driven by higher output and firm global prices.

Deliveries for Jan–July rose 40.7% to 24,308kg, pushing total earnings to US$2.32bn, more than double 2024 levels.

With global demand sustained by inflation, policy shifts, and geopolitical tensions, the sector is poised for further growth under supportive government policies.
