Precious metals

Assay, refining and hallmarking leave no room for a wide error bar. These are the instruments we specify for gold, silver and platinum-group work.

Where the decimal place is the margin

In precious-metals work the analytical result is the commercial result. A fineness figure decides what a bar is worth; a trace impurity decides whether a refining batch passes. The instrument has to be right, and it has to stay right between calibrations.

We help refiners, assay offices, jewellery manufacturers and recyclers across India match the technique to the decision being made — non-destructive screening where the piece must survive, dissolution and ICP where the last decimal place matters.
