About PMRS
Over 40 years ago, Precious Metal Refining Services, Inc. (PMRS) began operations as an industrial refiner specializing in silver recovery from film. We quickly evolved into a boutique full-service precious metal refinery specializing in high-volume customers, fire assay, and fast settlements.
Serving clients in all 50 states, as well as Canada, PMRS has grown to become one of the most trusted names in precious metals.
Our in-house refinery can process a wide range of materials containing gold, silver, platinum and palladium for jewelers, pawn shops, gold buyers, collectors, dentists, oral surgeons, dental labs and other industries.
To insure your satisfaction, our custom induction melting systems insure the highest quality melt, with the least amount of burn-off, and our settlements are derived from universally accepted standard sampling techniques founded in mathematical theory.
The reason we do what we do is because of you, the customer, and we look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship.
