Uzbekistan has gone five months without exporting gold, according to the National Statistics Committee.
No shipments of the precious metal were made to foreign markets in January-February, compared with $1.7 billion during the same period in 2025. The suspension of sales began in October 2025 and continues despite high global prices.
Gold prices remained near $5,000 per troy ounce in January-February, but decreased to $4,500 as of the end of March. (UzDaily)
