Precious metals are used in a wide range of applications, both in electronic and communications equipment, spacecraft and jet aircraft engines and for mobile phones or catalytic converters. The most commonly recovered precious metals are: gold from jewellery and electronics, silver from X-ray films and photographic emulsions, industrial applications (catalysts, batteries, glass/mirrors), jewellery; platinum group metals from catalytic converters, catalysts for the refining of crude oil, industrial catalysts, nitric acid manufacturing plant, the carbon-based catalyst, e-waste.

The metal recovery process often is quite complicated and involves a number of potentially delicate steps. These processes are performed by highly experienced professionals with a constant focus on shortest metal return time and highest recovery rates. Fortunately, most cities work with a number of precious metal recovery companies to recover different types of metals. It’s common for these companies to specialize in one type of metal; for instance, a single company may work to recover silver from photographic and Xerox film as well as different resins and other products.
