Dubai unveils world's largest 300kg gold bar (VIDEOS)
Witness history in the making at Dubai Gold Souk Extension
Dubai is about to make history as it unveils the world’s largest gold bar, weighing in at an astonishing 300.12 kilograms (661 lbs 10 oz), this weekend at the Dubai Gold Souk Extension.
Recognised by the Guinness World Records, this remarkable achievement promises to be a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle for both locals and visitors alike.
Set against the shimmering backdrop of Dubai’s iconic gold markets, this colossal gold bar, created by Emirates Minting Factory LLC, will be on display for two days only – December 7 and 8, 2024.
Weighing over 300kg, the bar eclipses the previous record held by a 250kg gold bar in Japan, reinforcing Dubai's reputation as a global leader in gold and precious metals.
The Emirates Minting Factory’s feat is a true testament to the UAE’s legacy of innovation, excellence, and dedication to craftsmanship. This extraordinary gold bar not only breaks records but also represents the UAE’s enduring commitment to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible.
