    Yes, the company pays in precious metals. Two reasons for this, one...less paperwork for them, two it's up to me to report income when I sell the metal...and when. I have some advice for going this route...don't bother with known materials. Save your omg it's gold bucket for this and refine once a year or less then keep the return for when gold is up. The problem here is your entirely trusting the company is returning exactly the extraction amount prescribed in total. I'm currently looking to contract a small refiner for these purposes with no luck yet. I still have buckets of unknowns that at best will net me a buck a pound.

    Are you allowed to relate the contact information regarding this company that pays in the recovered precious metals or would that be against the community forum posting rules?
