Precious Metals Testing – with Portable XRF

The importance of accurately determining gold purity while identifying counterfeit or gold-plated items makes material verification critical for pawnshops and jewelry retailers.

Join special guest Seth Gold, of American Jewelry and Loan, and Jonathan Margalit, of Thermo Fisher Scientific, for a discussion about the reasons precious metals testing is more important than ever before.

Topics will include:

  • Industry challenges in determining gold purity (karats)
  • Common approaches to precious metals testing
  • Use of x-ray fluorescence (XRF) technology in determining metal composition
  • Payback period for investment in a portable XRF analyzer

We look forward to your questions.
