Important before you buy
Uganda’s gold sector is active but also heavily associated with scams and fake intermediaries. Reddit discussions from buyers and traders repeatedly warn about fraud, fake assay certificates, and unsafe transactions.
A few smart precautions:
- Always insist on independent assay testing at a recognized refinery.
- Verify licenses with Uganda’s Directorate of Geological Survey and Mines (DGSM).
- Avoid advance payments before testing.
- Meet at established refinery or office locations — not hotels or private apartments.
- Use documented export procedures if buying for export.
Uganda’s gold market has grown rapidly, with exports reaching billions of dollars recently, and the Bank of Uganda even launched a domestic gold purchasing program in 2026.
