How are precious metal bars produced? Casting and sintering of precious metals

Precious metal bars are produced in different ways, depending on the metal. The production method depends on the chemical properties of each precious metal. For example, due to the lower melting point and softness of the precious metals gold, silver and platinum, ingots can simply be cast and shaped into the desired form. With brittle and particularly dense precious metals of the platinum group, such as iridium, palladium, osmium, rhodium and ruthenium, however, it is not easy to cast the ingots. The starting material for these platinum metals is usually in powder form, which is often highly flammable and has a particularly high melting point. In the case of platinum metal ingots, the ingots are produced by "sintering". If an ingot has been sintered, this means that the raw material of the precious metal (ruthenium, iridium, palladium, rhodium, osmium, ...) is pressed into the appropriate shape, which is done using heat and high pressure. For some platinum metals (such as rhodium), cold forging can also be used instead of the usual sintering process to achieve the ingot shape.

These precious metals can be cast into bars:

• Gold bars
• Silver bars
• Platinum bars

These precious metals are hot-pressed ("sintered") into bars:

• Osmium bars
• Rhodium bars
• Iridium bars
• Palladium bars
• Ruthenium bars

These precious metals can be cold forged:

• Rhodium bars
• Gold bars
• Silver bars
• Platinum bars

Note: MetaMetals has opted for cold forging for gold bars, silver bars and platinum bars. All precious metals can also bepurchased as a set.

Free-of-charge personalized engraving on precious metal bars ordered from our online store

Our precious metal bars can be engraved with a motif of your choice directly on the bar. So if you would like to have a personal picture, a saying, a logo or any other motif engraved on the bar you have purchased, please contact us and we will discuss everything else with you!

Please bear in mind that the surface area on most of the precious metal bars in our store is limited and therefore not every motif may be possible. The same applies to images that are too detailed. We also reserve the right to reject certain motifs for legal or ethical reasons.

The individual engraving on the respective precious metal bar is a free service from us and only applies to bars purchased in our precious metal store.

Osmium bars: Buy sintered bars made from rare osmium (Os 76)

Osmium bars are a rare and valuable form of precious metal investment. Osmium is known for its exceptional density, hardness and rarity, which can make it an attractive option for private investors. Osmium bars are offered in various weight units and their purity, which is guaranteed by MetaMetals, is a key factor in the value of the bars. As osmium is rarer than some other precious metals such as gold, osmium bars offer special opportunities as well as risks.

Iridium bars: Buy pressed bars of rare iridium (Ir 77)

Iridium is known for its high density and corrosion resistance, which makes it a valuable industrial metal. Iridium bars are available in various weight units and their purity, among other criteria, is decisive for their valuation on the investor market. Iridium is used both in industry and as an investment, and supply and demand also determine the value of iridium.

Ruthenium bars: Buy pressed bars of rare ruthenium (Ru 44)

Ruthenium is used in the electronics industry and other sectors. Our ruthenium bars are available in various weight units. Similar to our iridium or osmium bars, ruthenium bars are also pressed.

Rhodium bars: Buy pressed bars made from rare rhodium (Rh 45)

Rhodium is used in car catalytic converters, for example, making it an important metal in the automotive industry. The rhodium plating of jewelry is also an important topic here. Our rhodium bars are currently pressed, but we are also working on the possibility of cold pressing the precious metal.

Gold bars: Buy pressed gold bars (Au 79)

Gold bars are one of the best-known forms of precious metal and has played an important role as an investment for thousands of years. Gold can act as a potential store of value and asset protection, often in times of inflation and economic crisis. Gold bars are offered in different weight units such as grams, ounces and kilograms. Unlike platinum group metals, for example, gold bars can be cast.

Silver bars: Buy cast silver bars (Ag 47)

Silver is probably the second best-known precious metal in the world after gold. Like gold, silver can be used as a potential investment metal. Silver bars are available in various weight units, from a few grams to 1 ounce to several kilograms. Silver bars can also be purchased in cast form in the MetaMetals online store.

Platinum bars: Buy cast platinum bars (Pt 78)

Platinum bars are, in contrast to gold bars or silver bars, a less common but nevertheless important form of precious metal investment. Platinum bars are available in different weight units and purity is also one of the decisive factors for the value here. Cast platinum can be purchased as bars in our online store.

Palladium bars: Buy cast bars of rare palladium (Pd 46)

Like all platinum metals, palladium also has a wide range of applications in various industries. Starting with the production of hydrogen cars, in the medical sector as well as for speculative investments. Palladium bars are also sintered into shape and can be purchased in various weight units.
