Platinum Refining
We refine platinum through professional analysis, controlled melt processing, and accurate material classification.

Platinum Refining for Complex Lots
We handle mixed platinum-bearing feed containing multiple PGMs, base-metal carriers, solder, refractory residues, or industrial contaminants. Each lot is prepared according to its chemistry and physical form, so the platinum refining route matches the material profile.
​
For commercial scrap and irregular feed, controlled preparation helps reduce assay variance, isolate payable fractions, and support cleaner downstream separation while maintaining visibility across valuable platinum-group content.
Materials We Process
Platinum Jewelry: rings, chains, bracelets, settings, and mountings
Platinum Coins & Bullion: investment coins, bars, ingots, and rounds
Industrial Platinum Material: catalyst mesh, electrodes, thermocouple wire, and process scrap
Platinum Bench Scrap: filings, sweeps, clippings, polishing residues, and casting remnants
Platinum Components: contacts, crucibles, laboratory parts, and precision hardware
Our Platinum Expertise
Characterization: Identifies platinum fineness, alloy content, PGM distribution, and process risks.
Feed Preparation: Uses sizing, blending, sampling, and homogenization for representative lots.
Conversion: Applies dissolution, precipitation, filtration, and PGM separation for targeted platinum recovery.
Residue Management: Checks filter cake and insoluble solids for retained PGM content.
Quality Control: Reviews intermediate concentrates for separation performance and payable metal.
Valuation: Uses verified weight, assay results, payable PGM content, and current market references.
​
American Asset Buyers supports accountable platinum recycling, documented PGM separation, and commercially sound settlement for complex material lots to help maximize recoverable value.
