Precious metal refining was the initial force behind the company that supplied the technical knowledge and the various processes that eventually lead to the fabrication of precious metals and the subsequent coating capabilities that we use today. Precious metal processing has enabled us to take advantage of the economics associated with being vertically integrated and pass these savings and efficiencies on to the customer. The metals that we process are silver, gold, palladium, platinum, rhodium, ruthenium, iridium, and osmium. All of these are processed to a minimum 99.95% purity level.

Precious metals are processed in a state of the art environment using equipment that guarantees only the highest purity metals as a final product. These metals can then be returned to the customer in their refined state, fabricated to an alloy, a chemical compound of the customer's desire, or purchased and used by us in our coating applications. A sample of our available refining products would be, but not limited to sputtering targets, alloys for the casting industry, plating solutions for gold, silver, platinum, palladium, rhodium, iridium, ruthenium, and osmium applications. Precious metal pharmaceutical compounds for research and development use, as well as for treatment applications can also be supplied.

Precious metal scraps take on numerous forms and require specialized processing. Here are just some of the spent precious metal categories that we can process and have the ability to recover all of the precious metals that are present. If it contains precious metals we will recover it.

Bulk sales of precious metals can also be supplied in addition to precious metals in the form of sheet, wire, tubing, shot, bar, and custom geometries.

Our process techniques are not restricted to conventional methods. Not to say that some of the time tested and proven methods are not applied, because they are, but only in a greatly improved state. The melting of materials is controlled by computer analysis to aid in yielding the highest metal output. A chemical as well as an electrochemical process is used to refine platinum group metals. Gold is processed in a similar advanced fashion. It is comforting to know that in a day when most precious metal refiners have disappeared, there is still someone that not only physically generates pure metals, but also is constantly striving to improve on those mechanisms.
