Profits Back in Your Hands
We refine bullion dealers’ and traders’ silver to four-nines purity and return it as Britannia coins, 1kg bars or silver grain — for only a 5%-6% refining fee, one of the lowest rates in Britain. From mixed scrap and old stock to bar and coin remelts, every gram is recovered, assayed and accounted for, with nothing hidden in the small print. We arrange a free, fully insured collection, settle most lots within 48 hours, and back it all with a transparent assay certificate showing exactly what your metal was worth. Fair, fast, and built around your trading desk.

WHY CHOOSE WARSTONE REFINERY
Refining built around the
jeweller, not the refiner.
Most refiners quietly clip 10–15% and keep you waiting.
We do the opposite: a flat 5%-6%, returned fast, with every figure shown in black and white.
5% Flat Refining Fee
One transparent rate on recovered fine silver — no hidden lot fees, handling charges or treatment deductions buried in the small print.
Fast Turnaround
From the moment your pack lands with us, most lots are assayed, settled and ready to return within two working days. Cash or fresh metal — your choice.
Transparent Assay
Every lot is weighed and assayed on calibrated equipment, with a full certificate showing gross weight, purity and recovered yield.
Send To Us
You can send your metal into us, including any scrap gold you have.
Secure & Compliant
CCTV-monitored handling, audited processes and full chain-of-custody records from receipt to settlement. Your stock is treated like our own.
Live Market Pricing
Settlement is calculated against the live LBMA silver fix on the day we process — no opaque "house rate", no guesswork.
A lower commission you can actually see.
On a 1 kg lot of sterling scrap, the difference between a 5% and a 15% refining fee can be hundreds of pounds — money that belongs in your business, not your refiner’s.
- 5%-6% flat vs an industry norm of 10–15% — keep more of every gram you send.
- No minimum lot. Send a matchbox of filings or a sack of polishings.
- Settle your way — bank transfer, or take it back as fresh casting grain or bullion.
We are trusted by businesses across the UK and Europe

Clearest Assay certificate I've ever had — gross, fine and refining fee all laid out plainly. No more wondering where my metal went. — Daniel Mistry, Silver Bullion Dealer, Birmingham
I send my polishings every quarter and take it back as casting grain. Simple, fast and genuinely fair. Wouldn't go anywhere else now. — Trevor Anderson, Bullion Trader, London
