About Platinum Prices in Kenya
The platinum price in Kenya is derived from the international spot price (denominated in USD per troy ounce) and converted to Kenyan Shillingat the current exchange rate. Platinum is one of the world's rarest metals — annual mine production is roughly 200 tonnes, compared to 3,300 tonnes of gold.
Approximately 70-75% of the world's platinum is mined in South Africa, making supply conditions in that country a key price driver. Industrial demand — primarily automotive catalysts and emerging hydrogen fuel cell technology — accounts for over 50% of annual consumption. Investment demand via ETFs and bars/coins makes up most of the remainder.
