Precious Metal Refining

Precious metal refining is the process of extracting pure metals like gold, silver, platinum, and palladium from raw materials, such as ore, scrap jewelry, or electronic waste. It involves chemical, thermal, or electrochemical methods to separate these metals from impurities. The goal is to produce high-purity metals suitable for commercial use, investment, or manufacturing. Refining ensures metals meet industry standards and often involves multiple steps, including melting, chemical treatment, and filtration. It is an essential part of the precious metals supply chain, ensuring that the metals used in products and investments are of the highest quality.
