the world produces a cube of gold that is about 4.3 meters (about 14 feet) on each side every year.

The amount of gold in the world is approximately a cube roughly 25 meters (about 82 feet) on a side

there's not much production or all that much in existence for gold when you really think about it... it's an 8 story building, square.
