Is the gold rate in Chitungwiza different from other cities?

The underlying metal price is identical everywhere in Zimbabwe — gold trades in one global market and converts at one exchange rate. What differs city to city is the retail markup: making charges, wastage and the jeweller's own premium. Those are set by each shop, not by the market.

How often does this rate update?

The spot price refreshes continuously through the trading day and this page reflects the latest reading, last confirmed 6 minutes ago. Exchange rates refresh alongside it.

How this price is worked out. Gold trades in one global market, quoted in US dollars per troy ounce. The Chitungwiza price above is that spot price converted into ZWG at the current exchange rate, then scaled to the weight and purity shown — no estimate is involved at any step. What it does not include is the jeweller's making charge, wastage, or local taxes, which vary shop to shop. Use it as the metal value, not as a shop quote. Historical rows are converted at today's exchange rate, so they show how the metal moved rather than how the ZWG moved.
