Gold is the headline precious metal — held by central banks, hoarded in jewellery vaults, and the most-tracked of the four. UK gold trades against a single global benchmark (the London PM Fix) and converts cleanly to per-gram values at any purity. Below: the live spot price today, the per-gram value of every common UK carat, and links to the more detailed calculators and guides.

Gold by purity — live values
