What Drives Gold Bullion Prices in Lower Mount Royal

  • Dealer premium: The markup over spot covers manufacturing, distribution and profit. Premiums vary by product, brand and dealer.
  • Local demand: High demand in Lower Mount Royal or AB can tighten supply and push premiums higher, especially during market volatility.
