4 Interesting Facts About Recycled Gold

Published on: 23/12/2021 by Royi Sal Jewelry Team - Leave a Comment

4 Interesting Facts About Recycled

For over a decade, businesses in the jewelry industry have promoted recycling gold methods for more sustainable production. Now, more than ever, gold is being recycled, and consumers are becoming increasingly aware of what they are purchasing. But what is recycled gold exactly? And how is gold recycled? We cover all in this article. Here are 4 Interesting Facts About Recycled Gold.

4 Facts About Recycled Gold That You Should Know

1. What is recycled gold, and where does it come from?

methods of recycling

Recycled gold is made from refined precious metals. Typically, they will come from consumer products, waste products, unused metal, and other items that are made from gold. These are then sold to be melted down once they’re no longer in use. Recycling gold and precious metals is a more cost-effective way to make the alloys more affordable – particularly when it comes to jewelry making.

2. Methods of turning recycled gold into jewelry

So how is gold recycled? The gold recycling methods themselves are pretty straightforward – the metal is melted down and refined until it reaches its purest form. To make jewelry from recycled gold, you must look out for impurities within the alloy, which are melted off during the smelting process. It can also separate the gold from any other alloys that it may have been mixed with, which will help you identify the true karat value of the gold. The gold is then turned into the jewelry item desired, i.e., a ring or bullion.

3. The benefits of recycled gold

There are many benefits of recycling gold, but here are just a few to mention:
It is less impactful on the environment. Gold mining requires new sources of gold that are naturally formed but, as the years pass, these sources are depleting, and the environment is being destroyed on the hunt for new gold. However, recycling existing products reduces the need to source new gold.

Some untrustworthy retailers get their gold from unethical sources. In contrast, recycled gold is produced from existing materials and products – therefore, there’s the peace of mind that no extra harm is being imposed upon the environment.

Recycled gold can be melted down and recycled repeatedly, and it will never lose its value or purity.

4. Is recycled gold more ethical and sustainable?

Typically, recycled gold is seen as much more ethical and sustainable than regular gold. It can recycle without losing its quality, reused multiple times, which is a more sustainable solution than mining for new alloys. Plus, most gold has already been mined, and only a few mining regions are left. Gold mining can lead to harmful effects, like water pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, but the beauty is that we can get away without mining for new materials – thanks to recycled gold.
