As Singapore buzzed with energy in the lead up to the F1 race weekend, BullionStar welcomed a select group of special guests for an exclusive behind-the-scenes vault tour. This private visit offered a rare opportunity to step inside BullionStar’s operational precious metals vault — a secure facility that safeguards more than USD 1 billion in gold, silver, and platinum on behalf of customers from over 100 countries across the world.

Precious Metals at New Highs
The tours coincided with extraordinary momentum in the markets. Gold has set new all-time highs in 2025, including multiple records in last month alone, hovering just shy of US$3,900/oz.
Silver has also surged, reaching new 14 year highs of over US$47/oz
Remarkably, investor demand has not slowed despite record prices — September saw three times more buyers than sellers at BullionStar, while the average order size increased by more than 30% compared to prior months.
Inside the Vault
Once inside, guests immersed themselves in an atmosphere defined by the unmistakable weight and presence of real wealth.
On display were iconic gold and silver coins such as The Canadian Maple Leaf, United Kingdom Britannia, Austrian Philharmonic, and Australian Kangaroo, alongside kilogram gold bars, 100 oz silver bars, and the two showstoppers, the 400 oz Heraeus Gold Bar worth over US$1.5m, and BullionStar 1000 oz Heraeus silver bar worth over US$48,000.
Guests were encouraged to get hands-on with the display — inspecting coins and bars up close, taking selfies, and even joking about using bullion as gym weights. The highlight came when they attempted to lift a single gold bar worth approximately USD 1.5 million, a tangible reminder of the enduring heft and permanence of precious metals.
Throughout the experience, conversations also touched on why Singapore is regarded as one of the world’s safest and most trusted jurisdictions for bullion storage. With its strong rule of law, stable political climate, and transparent business environment, Singapore provides a secure foundation for BullionStar’s operations. The vault itself stands as a living demonstration of transparency, security, and accessibility — qualities that continue to set both BullionStar and Singapore apart as leaders in the global precious metals space.
The Enduring Weight of Wealth
For the guests who stepped inside, the vault tour was more than just a behind-the-scenes experience. It was a chance to see, touch, and feel the tangible reality of wealth that endures beyond market cycles. In a world of shifting currencies and financial uncertainty, bullion remains what it has always been: heavy, solid, and timeless.
