The weight of gold ore can vary depending on its composition, but on average, gold ore has a density of about 2.5 to 3 tons per cubic meter. Since gold itself is much denser, with a density of around 19.3 tons per cubic meter, the value and weight of the ore will depend on the concentration of gold within it. Thus, one cubic meter of gold ore typically weighs between 2.5 to 3 tons, depending on its specific characteristics.
Using the current market price of gold at $1,584.47 per ounce, $1 billion in gold would weigh 39,445.37 pounds, or 19.72 tons.

So ($1290 per/oz * 16)this brings us to one lb price of $20,640. 2000 lbs is a ton, so ($20,640 * 2000) gives us $41,280,000. Then since you want the price of 500 tons, simply (41,280,000 * 500) =roughly $20,640,000,000
