这一举措旨在切断非法黄金走私链条，挽回巨额税收与外汇流失，将这一战略资源牢牢掌握在国家手 中。 在全球金价突破每金衡盎司4300美元的历史性高位之际，一场关于黄金控制权的"隐秘战争"正在多国央 行与跨国走私集团之间展开。 从马达加斯加到厄瓜多尔，越来越多的国家央行和财政部不再满足于被动管理储备，而是选择"亲自下 场"，直接介入国内手工金矿的收购环节。 疯狂的"影子黄金"：直升机、黑帮与消失的28亿美元 对于产金国来说，金价的狂飙突进是一把双刃剑。一方面，它提升了黄金生产国的潜在财富，另一方面 也加剧了非法采矿和走私活动的疯狂。 以非洲岛国马达加斯加为例，该国央行行长Aivo Andrianarivelo面临着一个棘手的现实：据他估算，马 达加斯加年产黄金高达20吨，按当前价格计算价值约28亿美元。然而，在该国官方出口数据中，香草、 丁香、镍等占据榜首，黄金却几乎"查无此人"。 这28亿美元的黄金去哪了？绝大部分通过非法渠道流出了国境，导致国家财政颗粒无收，外汇储备严 重"失血"。Andrianarivelo在接受英国《金融时报》采访时表示： "犯罪团伙拥有飞机、直升机等非常先进的运输工具。" 这并非孤例，世界 ...
