How to choose

Start from your process. If you recover metal from whole processors, compare ceramic and fiber. If you start from pin material, look at gold-plated pins. If you sort in-house, mixed lots may fit.

What we do not claim

We do not publish gold content, yields or prices for any grade without a documented assay and a specific lot. Ask for details in your quote request.
