Frequently Asked QuestionsWhat is recycled jewellery?Approximately one fifth of total gold supply comes from "recycled" gold. This can be old gold items, for example gold jewellery, bars, coins and industrial items, which are melted down and re-formed into new gold items. "Recycled" gold is often referred to as "scrap". Of total world gold jewellery production, approximately one quarter is made from "recycled" gold jewellery. Because gold manufacturing uses gold from multiple sources, it is not possible to identify whether an item of gold jewellery is made from recycled or new gold. |
