Chemical Refining Services

At ACC, we dedicate 50% of our operations to chemical refining,making us one of the largest refiners of precious metal bearing chemicals in North America.
Our competitors predominantly focus on melting and sweeps preparation - often low grade / high volume - with little chemical solution capabilities. Our cutting-edge chemical refining processes are unmatched in the industry and maximize the return on your precious metals.

“As always your operators and customer service people were terrific.  Their attention to detail and drive to ensure accuracy makes it apparent that it isn’t for show, it’s a habit!  Great Job guys – Keep it up!”
