Frequently Asked Questions

Why is there always demand for Precious Metals?

Precious Metals are widely used in the manufacture of many products and as long as the demand for these products is constant, there will be demand for the metals raw materials.

Some examples:

Gold is used in the making of computers and cellphones, in dentistry for it’s ability to withstand corrosion, in the aerospace industry as a coating for space vehicles and in the automotive industry in the making of spark plugs and fuel injectors.

Most interesting is the use of gold  in medical research and devices such as pacemakers. In a recent study published by University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center the scientists found that gold nanoparticles could be used in the treatment of cancer.

Silver is used in the making of batteries, solar panels, x-ray equipment, circuit boards and as an antimicrobial coatings for medical and food processing equipment.

Platinum and Palladium, although less well known metals, are also used in a variety of manufacturing processes, including:

  • Automotive Catalytic Converters and Exhaust Catalysts
  • Fuel Cells
  • Water Purification
  • Glass Manufacturing
  • Photovoltaic Cells
  • Dental Alloys
  • Laboratory Equipment
  • Hydrogen Purification
Where should I store my Precious Metals?

Any precious metals you purchase for direct delivery should always be stored in a safe and secure location. That might be in a safe or vault within your home, within a safe deposit box at your local bank, or with a secure and insured depository such as the ones that VaultUS cooperates with, Brinks or  the Delaware Depository.

Can I get rich buying Gold?

Investing in precious metals is a longterm strategy and the metals market, like any market can be volatile, making it difficult to predict the exact returns you will get.

It is always best to do your research and consult an expert before investing in any type of asset.

How do I earn interest with Precious Metals?

Physical Gold and Silver do not produce interest or dividends. Instead, buyers of precious metals coins and bars buy them for the value of the metals in them. Premium coins, because of their limited runs, scarcity, and other collectible qualities, may be worth more than bullion products.
