At GBA we specialize in refining, assaying, and buying placer gold and mined materials.  Gold in Alaska can vary in purity and content based on geographical location. Therefore, it is of the utmost importance that accurate assaying and refining techniques are utilized to ensure the best return.  In order to ensure this accuracy, we have implemented both the X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) and fire assay. For more information about this please visit our Assay page.

Mined materials we refine include but are not limited to:

-Placer gold
-Dore bars
-Black sands
-Concentrates

We offer advances on placer gold, as well as the FASTEST turn around times in Alaska.  If you would like to take advantage of our unique pool account system, we will add your material, at no additional charge, for future pricing.
