Unbelievable discovery! How much gold can be found in Börzsöny?

There is much more gold than it was originally estimated.

“Hungary has a wide wealth of natural resources. The World Bank estimated that in 2019, the Hungarian gross domestic product would be the 58th highest in the world at $164 billion, while its per capita gross domestic product would be the 54th highest in the world at $16,905,” writes worldatlas.com. The country’s natural resources include arable land, grapes, livestock, forests, fish, and natural gas.

Azomining.com writes about other natural resources of the beautiful Eastern European country. The portal lists industrial minerals, fossil fuels, coal, hard coal and lignite as the main resources. In Börzsöny, however, precious gold and silver were found.

In our former article, we wrote about Hun-Bányászat Kutatási, Fejlesztési és Innovációs Kft. The company planned to open a mine in Börzsöny. The company turned to the Hungarian Mining and Geological Service in October. Its primary activity is iron ore mining. Ore contains 1.05 grammes of gold and 27.51 grammes of silver, on average.

Ore assets explored in the Nagyirtáspuszta area contain 1,075.8 tonnes of crop gold and 909 tonnes of crop silver. In the Rózsabánya area, there are 18.6 tonnes of gold and 98.85 tonnes of silver, we wrote back then. Now, it turns out that even more precious metals can be found in Börzsöny.
