Platinum Price in Cambodia

About this tool

The Platinum Price in Cambodia page shows the platinum price per gram, per 5 grams, per tael and per troy ounce in Khmer riel and US dollars, alongside a ten-day price trend for platinum. The feed quotes platinum by fineness in per-mille notation, with 999 platinum as the headline, and the page presents those rates as published. Data is fetched live from the goldnp.com international metals feed and shown in riel using the exchange rate the feed itself displays. Platinum is a niche metal in Cambodia compared with gold and silver — buyers are mostly jewellers and workshops, industrial users, and investors diversifying into precious metals — and this page gives them an international reference level before they talk to a dealer. As with the other metals pages, the quoted price is an international market level expressed in riel, not a Cambodian counter price; local dealers add their own margins, and the page does not buy, sell or price workmanship.

How it works

The page calls the site’s metal-prices service, which fetches the platinum price pages of goldnp.com in KHR and USD, parses each “price per gram” line — platinum is listed by fineness such as 999 — along with the ten-day trend table, the USD/KHR rate and the spot price per troy ounce, then merges the USD values into the KHR rows. If the KHR page cannot be fetched, the service tries the node-compatible data fallback before returning a 502-style error state. On success the page renders the per-gram rates in both currencies with a riel/USD toggle, the trend table with daily change percentages, the source name and the feed’s update timestamp. The service passes the parsed numbers through unchanged — no rounding or smoothing of the feed’s published rates, and the only derived figure is a missing USD value filled in from the KHR price and the feed’s own rate.

Frequently asked questions

• Is this what a Cambodian platinum dealer will pay or charge?

  No. This is an international quoted price from goldnp.com expressed in riel. Platinum is traded in small volumes in Cambodia, so dealer margins can be wider than for gold, and the counter price depends on the piece, its weight, workmanship and the dealer’s own costs. Use the page as the international reference and get a firm quote from the dealer.

• Why is platinum priced per mille like silver?

  Platinum purity is quoted in parts per thousand, the same notation as silver: 999 means 99.9% pure platinum, 950 means 95%, and so on. The feed lists the fineness lines it publishes with a separate per-gram price for each, and the page shows them as-is rather than converting to karats, which is not used for platinum.

• Is the platinum price official or government-published?

  No. The source is goldnp.com, an independent international metals-price website, and no Cambodian authority publishes an official platinum price. The page names its source and displays the feed’s update time so you can judge the freshness of the number yourself.

• Why does platinum sometimes cost more per gram than gold?

  Platinum is rarer than gold in terms of annual mine production and has strong industrial demand, so its per-gram price can sit above or below gold depending on the market cycle. This page quotes platinum on its own, and comparing it with the gold and silver pages is a legitimate way to see the current relationship.

• How current are the prices on this page?

  The page fetches the feed live on each load and shows the feed’s own last-update timestamp with the rates; the ten-day trend refreshes on the same fetch. If the feed cannot be reached, the page shows a loading error rather than presenting a stale number as current.

• Does the trend table forecast platinum prices?

  No. The ten-day table records past prices with each day’s change percentage and is not a forecast, a recommendation, or an indication of where the market is heading next. Use it to see the recent direction of the price, and treat any decision about when to buy or sell as your own responsibility.
