Precious Metals Production in the UK

The Precious Metals Production industry's revenue is forecast to expand at a compound annual rate of 14.3% over the five years through 2023-24 to £279.4 million. Higher-than-normal precious metal prices mean that smaller companies have been able to operate with only a handful of staff while still making enough money to keep going. However, as gold and silver are used less in film and digital technology, the amount of precious metals recoverable from scrap has fallen, raising purchasing costs and somewhat limiting growth.

Companies in this industry refine precious metals like gold, silver and platinum. They also produce precious metal alloys, wires through metal drawing and precious metal foil laminates. Semi-products, which include standardised strips, sheets, tubes and ring blanks, are also manufactured. This industry excludes the casting of non-ferrous metals and manufacture of precious metal jewellery.
