We pay fast – often within five business days after we receive a customer’s metals, and we offer advances on materials in the process. We start by weighing your precious metals on scales calibrated quarterly by outside certification specialists. The check-in process continues as we photograph and document your metal, and witness-signed verifications ensure accuracy throughout. Professionals in our melting department then verify the weight before melting the metal into a homogenous form that undergoes our rigorous corrected fire assay process to determine the purity of the sample. While we have the internal XRF (X-ray fluorescence) capabilities to tell customers the approximate value of their metals, only the exacting corrected fire assay process provides integrity, accuracy, and consistency to ensure you receive the most accurate payment for your scrap material.
