🚨 JUST IN: The Donald Trump administration is reportedly facilitating a major gold deal between the United States and Venezuela.
According to Axios, Venezuela’s state-owned mining company has signed a multi-million-dollar agreement to export up to 1,000 kilograms of gold to the U.S. market.
The gold — in the form of dore bars — will be sold to commodities trading giant Trafigura, which will handle logistics and deliver the metal to U.S. refineries under a separate arrangement with the American government.
At current market prices, 1,000 kg of gold is worth roughly $160M+, making this a significant commodities transaction amid rising global demand for hard assets.
The move signals deepening economic coordination between Washington and Caracas, especially around energy and mineral resources, and could reshape how Venezuelan commodities enter global markets.
