Refining Minimums

       As a precious metal refiner we have had to enforce our minimum requirements for refining.  Our policies are set with regard to our customer's best interest.  Refining less than the minimum required may not yield enough to warrant refining and could cost you money. 

We have set a Refining Fee of $50 if less than the listed weights:

 Gold scrap - 50 dwt or 77.75 gms    

         YGF  - 250 dwt or 389 gms

                      Silver scrap - 10 TO 

                         Silver-Filled - 250 dwt or 389 gms

                              Sweeps and Polishings - 3 lbs.


Also, silver weighing less than 10 TO will be paid at 80% instead of 90%.

Thank you for your cooperation.   We will still refine your smaller batches but a $50 fee will be charged.

  1. What are examples of "Silver-Filled"? I assume that does not mean "plated". Does it mean "Silver Solder"?

  2. Sorry for the delayed response. Silver-filled is not plated but manufacturered with the same technique as gold filled. We have several gauges of silver-filled availabel but not posted to the web as yet. Call us if you'd like gauges not listed. Thanks
