Waste Not Want Not: A Bench Jewelers Guide to Scrap Material Management

When it comes to recovering precious metal, nothing is worthless. However, If you walk into many repair shops you will find jewelers behaving as if it were. Many jewelers do not realize what a valuable asset their scrap is. They have been pleasantly surprised by the amount of additional revenues received from a refiner when a clean and orderly shop is maintained.

There is an old saying, "Cleanliness is next to Godliness." I am not sure where this saying originated, certainly not from the Bible! However, when it comes to the jewelry shop, Cleanliness may not be next to Godliness, but it is certainly next to Profits.

Additional revenues from the refiner are pure profits, and this book show you how to maximize the Gold, Silver, and Platinum scraps you send them.
