<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Burgess, post: 8239702, member: 105098&quot;]just saying, refiners generally have the assaying capability, assayers generally are refiners, and there are refiners around, the &quot;we buy&quot; guys are just middle men, and yeah, they won&#039;t pay what a refiner/assayer will pay and come in much lower if they are to buy it so they can make their edge on it,, and if they have to guess the content, they seriously lowball.&nbsp; XRF is close, but it&#039;s not assaying accuracy. XRF is off by like .2% compared to assay testing.</p><p>As long as you are sure it&#039;s not plated thickly, XRF should get you a close approximation of what it would assay at if you have cheap access to XRF. </p><p>XRF should tell you the answer to what you are looking for pretty close without any damage.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
