Rand Refinery

Established by the Transvaal Chamber of Mines in 1920 at Germiston, the Rand Refinery has produced 50,000 tons of refined Gold over the last 90 years (about a third of the world’s mining) and expanded across the continent of Africa and into Asia. The Rand Refinery has produced 10oz Gold Bars for the Bank of India and 10 Tola Gold Bars for the Bombay Mint. In 1967 it became responsible for producing the world famous Krugerrand of which there is now over 60 Million in circulation. The Rand Refinery is active with responsible gold policies and has established a "Gold Zone" for the further development of the precious metal jewellery trade in South Africa.
