Live Precious Metal Calculator

Calculate Your Metal Value

Use current precious metal market prices to estimate the intrinsic value of known gold, silver, platinum, and palladium. For mixed, unknown, dental, industrial, or specialty materials, request a personalized material review instead of relying on calculator estimates.

Not Every Material Can Be Calculated

Many precious metal-bearing materials cannot be accurately valued using a simple calculator.

Examples include:

  • Dental Scrap

  • Bench sweeps 

  • Polishing Dust

  • Crematory materials 

  • Mixed alloys 

  • Industrial materials 

  • Unknown scrap 

  • Floor sweeps

  • Filters or collection-system residues.

For these materials, request a Material Review and our team will help determine the most appropriate next step.

How the Calculator Works

  • Live Market Pricing

    Current precious metal market prices are retrieved every 60 seconds.

  • Automatic Unit Conversion

    Weights are converted to troy ounces before purity and market value are calculated.

  • Intrinsic Metal Value

    The calculator estimates the gross market value of the pure precious metal contained within the entered weight and purity. It does not calculate the final customer settlement.
