About This Product

About our 12.5KG gold bars:
the international benchmark

The 12.5kg bar is the format adopted by the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) as the international Good Delivery standard. It is the weight used by central banks, institutional investors, and bullion refineries worldwide, and it carries precise specifications: a weight range of 12.441 to 13.002kg, a minimum fineness of 995 parts per thousand, and a unique serial number identifying the bar's provenance. Bushiangala's 12.5kg bars are produced using advanced refining technology and achieve purity levels of 96% to 99.99%, with an independent assay certificate confirming weight, purity, and origin issued before payment is finalised.

Buyers whose custodians or institutional counterparts require documentation aligned with Good Delivery standards should confirm their specific requirements at the enquiry stage. Bushiangala's export team has experience supporting buyers whose banks and compliance functions conduct independent due diligence on the supply chain before any commitment is made.

Investment Case

Sourcing 12.5KG gold bars
from Africa, direct from Kenya

In November 2025, Kenya announced the discovery of the Isulu-Bushiangala gold reserve, a site valued at over $5 billion with projected reserves of 1.27 million ounces. That project carries Bushiangala's name because this is a mining operation with genuine geological depth and a 25-year presence in the industry. When you buy 12.5kg gold bars from Africa through Bushiangala, you are dealing directly with the company that mines and refines the metal — with no agents or intermediaries between the source and the buyer. The cost-per-kilogram advantage of African sourcing passes directly to the buyer, and the provenance chain is traceable to the mine of origin.

When documentation originates at the mine, it is first-hand — not reproduced, repackaged, or reliant on a third party's records. Bushiangala's position as one of Kenya's licensed 12.5kg gold bar suppliers — with its own mining operations and advanced refining capability — means that the assay report, the export permit, and the chain-of-custody record all originate from the same source as the gold itself.

For buyers starting with a smaller initial position, our 1kg gold bars and 5kg gold bars offer the same mine-direct sourcing, the same assay certification, and the same export documentation process. The 12.5KG bar is the choice for institutional buyers and investors making a committed long-term allocation.

Source & Export

Supplying 12.5KG gold bars across Kenya, Africa, and worldwide

Bushiangala Gold Extractives supplies investment-grade 12.5kg gold bars to institutional buyers and private investors across the UK, USA, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific. Gold sourced from Kenya and Africa's gold-producing regions — shipped to buyers in the UK, USA, Europe, and beyond — represents one of the most cost-efficient routes to physical gold ownership available to international investors.

With export permits held under Kenya's Mining Act and specialist freight coordinated by Bushiangala's export team from certification to delivery, acquiring 12.5kg gold bars from a licensed Kenyan exporter is a fully documented, regulated process for verified buyers. The most common concern among international buyers is legitimacy. In an industry where agents routinely present as miners and documentation is frequently fabricated, the answer is not reassurance — it is evidence. Bushiangala holds three government-issued licences that are on record and independently verifiable.

For international investors seeking 12.5KG gold bars in Africa, Kenya-sourced gold from a licensed mining operation provides the documentation trail and regulatory backing that a purchase at this level requires — at every stage of the transaction.

Verified Credentials

Why buy 12.5KG gold bars from
Bushiangala Gold Extractives?

Bushiangala Gold Extractives owns and operates its mines in Kenya. We are the miners, not agents. Each bar is accompanied by an official assay report confirming purity and provenance, and buyers' legal or compliance teams are welcome to conduct independent due diligence on the supply chain before any commitment is made. Every credential listed below is issued by a named Kenyan government body and can be checked independently.

01 Licence One

Mineral Trading Licence

Issued by the State Department of Mining, Republic of Kenya. Authorises Bushialangala to purchase, trade, and process gold mined within Kenya. Not self-declared — independently verifiable through the Kenyan government registry.

We have operated for 25 years and supplied gold bars to buyers in more than 75 countries, across five continents. Our pricing reflects the genuine advantage of sourcing directly from the mine: no brokers, no agents, no inflated margins. For a purchase at the 12.5KG level, that transparency is not a nice-to-have. It is the minimum standard a serious buyer should expect.

We also accommodate multi-bar requirements and institutions seeking consolidated consignments or ongoing supply arrangements. Contact our export team to discuss bespoke terms.

How It Works

Our export and
delivery process

As licensed 12.5KG gold bar exporters in Kenya, Bushiangala manages the full export process on the buyer's behalf. The five stages below describe the journey from first enquiry to delivery at your nominated address or custodian.

01

Enquiry & Quotation

Contact Bushiangala via the enquiry form or WhatsApp. A price is quoted against the prevailing LBMA spot rate plus an export premium. Quotations are indicative until a formal sales and purchase agreement is signed.

02

Sales & Purchase Agreement

A formal SPA is issued and the price locks at point of signature. KYC and AML documentation is completed on both sides. Buyers requiring a letter of credit or escrow arrangement should raise this at the agreement stage.

03

Assay Certification & Verification

The bar is independently assayed by an accredited laboratory. The assay certificate, serial number, and mine-of-origin documentation are compiled and shared with the buyer for review and approval before shipment is authorised.

04

Export Permit & Specialist Logistics

Export documentation is processed under Kenya's Mining Act. Shipment is handled through specialist armoured freight providers with full transit insurance at the replacement value of the bar.

05

Delivery & Confirmation

The bar is delivered to your nominated address or custodian, with full tracking provided throughout. For buyers in the UK, USA, or Europe, Bushiangala recommends engaging a customs broker in your destination country to manage arrival paperwork at this value level.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions about
buying 12.5KG gold bars from Kenya

The price of a 12.5kg gold bar is determined by the prevailing LBMA gold spot rate, which the London Bullion Market Association publishes twice daily. At current gold market values, a 12.5kg bar represents a substantial capital commitment, and the exact figure depends on the spot price at the point your sales and purchase agreement is signed.

Bushiangala confirms all pricing against the LBMA rate at that moment, with an export premium applied. To receive a current price indication, contact the export team directly — quotations are provided promptly and are valid for a confirmed period.

Yes. The export of investment-grade gold from Kenya is legal and regulated under Kenya's Mining Act, which requires that gold exports are conducted by licensed operators holding the appropriate government permits. Bushiangala holds those permits.

For the buyer's side, the import of gold bars into the UK, USA, and EU is legal in all three jurisdictions, where gold bullion is treated as a financial instrument. The buyer is responsible for import declaration requirements in their home country. For a transaction at this value, independent import clearance support in your jurisdiction is advisable, and Bushiangala's export team can advise on what to expect at the destination end.

At current market values, home storage is not advisable for a bar at this level. Appropriate options include allocated storage with specialist vault operators such as Brinks, Malca-Amit, or Via Mat in London, Zurich, or Singapore; safe deposit facilities at a private bank with insured precious metals storage; or allocated storage with a purchasing dealer where custodial services are offered.

Allocated storage means your specific bar, identified by its serial number, is held in your name and segregated from other holdings. At this purchase scale, allocated is always the right arrangement.
