Metal Costs
Turn a wax weight or set of dimensions into a casting weight and metal cost at today's spot price, then switch to the melt tab to value scrap by weight, fineness, and refiner fee. It runs entirely in your browser and nothing is uploaded.
How it works
Enter today's spot price
Type the current metal spot price per gram, so every figure below uses today's market, not a stale one.
Pick your alloy and input
Choose a casting alloy, such as 9ct, 14ct, or 18ct gold, then enter a wax weight directly or work it out from dimensions.
Read the cost, or switch to melt
See the casting weight and metal cost straight away, or switch to the melt tab to value scrap by weight, fineness, and refiner fee.
Casting houses charge margins over metal content, and spot prices move daily. Treat every figure here as an estimate for quoting, not a final invoice, and confirm with your caster or refiner before you commit.
