Our Recycling Mission: Sustainable, Ethical, Responsible

Recycled Precious Metals for a Better Tomorrow

Most people don’t realise just how damaging gold and silver mining can be. Every piece of unworn or broken jewellery thrown away leads to more metal being extracted from the earth, increasing:

  • Environmental destruction
  • Deforestation
  • Water pollution
  • Harm to wildlife habitats

At Pharaohs Bullion, we offer a sustainable alternative. We purchase unwanted items, refine them into clean grain, and supply them back to jewellers, helping reduce the need for newly mined materials.

We accept and recycle a wide range of items, including:

  • Broken gold & silver jewellery
  • Old or unwanted chains, bracelets & rings
  • Scrap gold (including items missing stones or clasps)
  • Silver spoons, cutlery and ornaments
  • Gold coins & bullion
  • Dental gold and melted remnants

Everything is tested, sorted, and refined – nothing goes to landfill.

Why It Matters: The Environmental Impact of Precious Metal Mining

The Hidden Cost of Jewellery

Mining just one gold ring can produce up to 20 tonnes of toxic waste. Large-scale extraction leads to:

  • Soil erosion
  • Toxic chemical use (mercury & cyanide)
  • Loss of biodiversity

By choosing to recycle with Pharaohs Bullion, you are:

  • Supporting reduced global mining efforts
  • Helping to preserve forests and ecosystems
  • Reducing demand on new material extraction

How It Works

Step 1: Bring Your Items: Visit our sustainable jewellers in Motherwell or book an appointment in Edinburgh. 

Step 2: Free Testing & Valuation: We test the purity and weight using professional equipment, right in front of you.

Step 3: Receive an Offer: We offer you the best market price based on live gold and silver rates.

Step 4: Your Jewellery Gets Recycled: We refine and melt the item into reusable grain, ready for the next generation of jewellery – nothing wasted.

The Bigger Picture: Building a Circular Jewellery Economy

Pharaohs Bullion isn’t just a gold buyer. We’re helping to reshape the Scottish jewellery industry by:

  • Encouraging ethical consumer choices
  • Educating customers on sustainability
  • Working with jewellers who prioritise recycled materials
  • Promoting lab-grown diamonds and conflict-free gemstones

When you sell to us, you’re part of this change.

FAQs About Our Gold & Silver Recycling Service

Q. What happens to my gold after I sell it?

A. It is refined into pure grain and redistributed to the jewellery trade for reuse, often turned into new wedding rings, pendants, or bangles.

Q. Can I sell broken or scrap items?

A. Yes, we specialise in recycling damaged, incomplete, or unsellable items. The condition doesn’t affect the metal’s value.

Q. Is this different from pawnbroking?

A. Yes. We buy your item outright and recycle it. You’re not taking a loan against it.

Q. Do I get less money for scrap?

A. Not at Pharaohs Bullion. We pay based on metal content, not condition. You’ll get the highest market-aligned price, even if the item is broken.

Q. Is this environmentally friendly?

A. Absolutely. Recycling gold and silver reduces the need for new mining, protecting ecosystems and conserving natural resources.
