Is Gogold Resources (GGD) stock Halal?
Under AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21, a Halal stock keeps non-permissible income below 5% of revenue and interest-bearing debt and investments each below 30% of market capitalisation. Gogold Resources, Inc. (GGD) does not meet the threshold for the non-permissible income and interest-bearing investments screens as of September 2026, so it is not Shariah compliant.
Gogold Resources is a Canada-based mining company primarily involved in the exploration and production of precious metals, with a particular focus on gold and silver. The company's main operations are located in Mexico, where it manages several active mining projects. GoGold Resources is known for its work on the Parral Tailings project, a noteworthy undertaking that involves the reprocessing of old mine waste to extract remaining metal deposits, highlighting the company's commitment to sustainable mining practices. For Muslim investors, though, the most pressing question is simpler: is Gogold Resources a Halal investment?
Is Gogold Resources Shariah compliant?
Extracting and selling oil, gas or materials is a permissible business, so companies like Gogold Resources rarely stumble on the activity screen. The pressure point is capital structure: energy is a capital hungry industry that borrows heavily, and AAOIFI Shariah Standard No. 21 caps interest bearing debt at 30% of market capitalisation, a line that moves as commodity cycles move the share price.
Does Gogold Resources pass the business activity test?
The activity screen is only part of the picture this month: Gogold Resources currently fails the non-permissible income and interest-bearing investments screens, so the overall verdict is not compliant regardless of the business itself. The activity itself, extracting and selling resources, raises no Shariah objection; the scrutiny belongs to the financing.
Is Gogold Resources' income Halal?
No. Gogold Resources' income from impermissible sources currently exceeds AAOIFI's 5% revenue ceiling, which makes the stock non-compliant on this screen regardless of the others. The screen is reassessed monthly, so the status can change when new financial statements arrive.
Does Gogold Resources meet AAOIFI's debt and investment ratio requirements?
Not in full. Interest bearing investments currently exceed the 30% cap, while the other ratio stays within it. One breach is enough to fail the screening; the ratios are reassessed monthly under our Shariah Supervisory Board.
