Processing and quality
Refining & Smelting
What we do
Plan the right processing route for the material and the intended output.
ISH Metal Trading includes refining and smelting in its connected precious-metals service. A useful first discussion establishes the input material, the target purity or form, the proposed assay method and the documentation the recipient needs.
Processing scope and facility arrangements are confirmed for each engagement. The agreed route should make custody, testing, output and any handover clear before material moves.
Service scope
What to clarify before processing
A specific processing plan is more useful than a general purity promise. These details determine whether the requested result and timeline can be supported.
- Input material and available assay results
- Target fineness and output form
- Facility, custody and sampling arrangements
- Reporting, handover and delivery requirements
How to begin
A practical processing discussion
- 01
Characterise the material
Share what is known about weight, form and composition; identify any testing still needed.
- 02
Agree the route
Confirm the processing scope, facility arrangement, target output and custody points.
- 03
Review the result
Set out how the finished material will be assayed, documented and handed over.
Common questions
Useful details before you enquire.
Do I need an assay before enquiring?
An existing assay is helpful, but you can still describe the material and ask what testing would be needed before terms can be set.
Can output form be specified?
Tell us whether you need a particular bar, ingot or other form. Feasibility and any processing requirements can then be confirmed.
