[Uzbekistan Resumes Gold Exports] As one of the world's largest gold producers, Uzbekistan fully resumed gold exports in April after a six-month suspension. According to a report from the country's State Statistics Committee on Tuesday, Uzbekistan exported approximately $1.5 billion worth of non-monetary gold in the first four months of this year. Data shows that the majority of these exports were completed in April. Uzbekistan's annual gold production is approximately 130 tons. Since September last year, the country had effectively halted gold exports, while its central bank became one of the world's largest buyers of this precious metal. As another major global gold producer, Russia has also recently accelerated its gold sales.
