The Klondike Gold Rush (1896-1899) heightened interest in Canada’s mineral wealth, but miners grew increasingly frustrated with the lack of a domestic market and the excessive export expense of gold exports. While gold mining production in the Klondike peaked and then ebbed, renewed calls for a Dominion Mint prompted the establishment of the Ottawa branch of the Royal Mint, which officially opened on January 2, 1908.
A necessary addition for transforming doré bars into coinage-quality gold, an on-site refinery was completed in 1911 – in time to become an essential part of the Ottawa Mint’s operations during the First World War, when its gold bars helped pay Britain’s war debts. In 1919, it was first recognized by the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) as a Good Delivery refinery; to this day, the Royal Canadian Mint has maintained its position on that list of accredited gold refiners.
Work on a new refinery was completed in 1936, and it was in this facility that the recently renamed Royal Canadian Mint began pushing boundaries: In the mid-1960s, it upped the purity of its gold bars from .995 to .9999 fine. In 1982, it was the first in the world to produce .9999 bullion coins. Lastly, in 1998, it was the first to achieve an unprecedented purity level of .99999 fines (99.999% or ‘five nines’ purity).
ABOUT THE ROYAL CANADIAN MINT
The Royal Canadian Mint is known as one of the most reputable mints in the world. The Ottawa Branch of the Royal Mint opened in 1908 and was renamed The Royal Canadian Mint in 1931 when control was transferred to the Canadian government. Their high standards for excellence and quality allowed them to be the first refinery to manufacture 9999 fine gold bullion coins in 1982, as well as the first to reach 99999 fine gold purity in 1998.
