Snapshot from Friday, November 6, 2026. Sources: gold $4,064.50 and silver $51.803 are COMEX front-month settlements reported by Dow Jones / WSJ on Nov 6 (gold +4.60% and silver +5.51% on the week); platinum $1,542.28 from a published spot board (PeerMetals, Nov 6, 11:59 AM ET); palladium $1,022.96 and copper $6.26/lb from published spot boards the same day. Reference only — not a live feed, not a quote, and not an offer to buy or sell. Dealer and yard prices sit above or below spot depending on product, grade, and quantity.

Pick your lane

Three doors, one desk

Every request lands in one of three lanes. Each lane has its own intake option, its own pricing method, and the same rule: you approve before anything closes.

Mineral Rights & Land

Own mineral rights, royalty interest, or land with minerals under it? We research what you actually hold, value it against real comparables, and prep it for listing or a direct documented sale.

  • Free valuation intel — what it is, where, what's it worth
  • Listing prep via established mineral marketplaces
  • Deed, division-order & paperwork checklists

Gold, silver, platinum, and copper — bought the smart way: join the buy list now, and when our dealer-partner programs are approved we route your order at the partner price with the premium explained before you spend a dollar.

  • Coins & bars via dealer partners (programs pending approval)
  • Spot vs. premium — the real cost, shown up front

Recycling & Scrap Consulting

Businesses overpay for waste hauling and under-collect on scrap. Our audit finds both leaks — what your scrap stream should earn, and what your waste bill should cost.

  • Scrap-revenue audit for yards, shops & contractors
  • Waste-cost review — hauling, bins, frequency
  • Grade & sorting guidance so loads price higher

Shop · Buy metals

The bullion shelf

The products buyers ask for most, organized by metal. Our dealer-partner applications (JM Bullion and SD Bullion via Awin) are pending approval — so today the shelf works as a buy list: tell us what you want, we hold your request, and the moment partner buying opens — or whenever a partner quote is available through the desk — you get the price, premium, and delivery terms to approve before you pay anyone. No fake checkout, no invented stock.

Gold · Coin

American Gold Eagle — 1 oz

The most recognized U.S. gold coin: 1 troy oz of gold, U.S. Mint, IRA-eligible. The default first gold purchase for most buyers.

Spot reference $4,064.50 /oz + dealer premium

Gold Bar — 1 oz, accredited refiner

Sealed, assay-certified 1 oz bars from accredited refiners. Lower premium per ounce than coins — the efficient way to stack gold weight.

Spot reference $4,064.50 /oz + dealer premium
Silver · Coin

American Silver Eagle — 1 oz

Silver · Bar

Silver Bar — 10 oz

Ten troy ounces in one bar — lower premium per ounce than single coins, still small enough to sell in pieces of your stack over time.

Spot reference $518.00 melt at spot + premium
Platinum · Bar / Coin

Platinum — 1 oz bar or coin

One troy oz of platinum — an industrial metal with a precious-metal market, trading far below gold on the Nov 6 reference board. For buyers diversifying past gold and silver.

Spot reference $1,542.28 /oz + dealer premium
Copper · Rounds & Bars

Copper Rounds & Bars — 1 oz / 1 lb

.999 copper rounds and bars — the entry-level metal: low cost per piece, bought by stackers and gift buyers. Note: copper carries the widest premium over spot of any metal on this shelf.

Spot reference $6.26 /lb COMEX + premium
Affiliate disclosure — please read before you buy: Metron Exchange is an independent exchange desk. We do not hold bullion inventory and we do not run a checkout on this page. Metron Exchange has applied to the JM Bullion and SD Bullion affiliate programs (via Awin) and approval is pending. Buying through dealer partners opens when those approvals land; when it does, links from this shelf will be affiliate links and Metron Exchange may earn a commission on qualifying orders at no extra cost to you. Until then, "Buy options" and "Join the buy list" simply register your request with our desk — we hold it, and when partner buying is available we bring you the partner's price, premium, shipping, and terms for your approval before any payment. Prices move with the market — the spot figures above are the Nov 6, 2026 reference snapshot, not a locked price. No returns on investment are promised or implied. Verify a dealer's price and terms on the dealer's own site before paying.

Not sure which metal fits? Tell the desk your budget and your goal — we'll lay out the shelf options against the board, with the premium on each explained before you commit.

Sell through the desk

Sell what you hold

Three selling lanes, one process. You never hand over an asset or sign anything until you've seen our pricing work and approved it.

Sell Your Minerals

Loose minerals, specimens, concentrates, ore, or claims — tell us what it is and where it sits. We identify it, research comparable sales, and bring you documented options: marketplace listing, direct buyer match, or hold.

  • Identification & comparable-sales research
  • Photo/specimen documentation checklist
  • Listing prep or buyer matching

Sell Your Scrap

Copper, aluminum, brass, steel, wire, e-scrap, catalytic material — one load or a recurring stream. We grade it against the COMEX board so you know what a yard should pay before you haul.

  • Grade check: #1 / #2 copper, insulated wire, mixed loads
  • Expected-value estimate from the calculators below
  • Yard & buyer options for your area

Sell Mineral Rights

Selling rights or royalty interest is a paperwork deal before it's a money deal. We value the interest, check the documents a buyer will demand, and prep the listing so offers come in clean.

  • Valuation intel from real comparables
  • Deed, lease & division-order checklist
  • Listing prep on established mineral marketplaces

Metron Affiliate · Partner program

Promote the exchange. Earn on real business.

The Metron Affiliate Program is a mineral-exchange partner program: you send buyers, sellers, and businesses to the desk, and you earn when that business qualifies. Three ways in:

Individual Partner

For creators, educators, stackers, and community voices.

  • Your own referral link / code on approval
  • Promote the bullion shelf & free valuation offer
  • Best for: content, social, word of mouth

Business Partner

For shops, advisors, and service businesses whose customers hold metals, land, or scrap.

  • Refer clients for audits, valuation & sell lanes
  • Co-branded intake route on approval
  • Best for: jewelers, estate & tax pros, realtors

Yard & Dealer Partner

For scrap yards, pawn & coin dealers, and recyclers.

  • Two-way flow: your overflow, our desk's buyers
  • Grade/spread coordination against the board
  • Best for: yards, dealers, dismantlers

How commissions work — the honest version

  1. Apply below. Tell us who you are and where you'd promote. Applications are reviewed by the desk; full partner terms (rates, payout schedule, cookie/attribution window) are provided in writing on approval — nothing is owed or promised before that.
  2. Bullion shelf earnings flow through dealer affiliate programs. The JM Bullion and SD Bullion programs (via Awin) pay $25 per new-customer qualifying order. Metron Exchange's applications to those programs are pending approval; once approved, partner referrals to the shelf earn under those published program terms, shared per your Metron partner agreement.
  3. Service referrals (audits, valuation, sell lanes) are tracked to your code and paid under the commission schedule in your partner agreement, on business that actually closes and pays — not on clicks or signups alone.
  4. Disclosure is mandatory. Partners must disclose the affiliate relationship wherever they promote, the same way this page does. No income claims, no guaranteed-return language — ever.

Affiliate disclosure: Metron Exchange participates (or has applied to participate) in affiliate programs including JM Bullion and SD Bullion via Awin. We may earn commissions on qualifying purchases and closed business made through partner links and codes, at no additional cost to the customer. Program status on this page is stated as of November 6, 2026.

Straight answers

Questions the desk gets

Do you buy my minerals, rights, or scrap directly?
The desk prices, researches, lists, and matches — deals close on established marketplaces or documented rails with buyers and yards. No client funds touch Metron Exchange, and you approve the number and the route before anything moves.
Why don't the bullion products have a final price and checkout?
Because bullion prices move with spot and every dealer charges a different premium. We are enrolled-pending with our dealer partners (JM Bullion and SD Bullion affiliate programs via Awin, applied and awaiting approval). Until partner checkout links go live, the honest route is: register what you want, and we bring you the partner's actual price, premium, and terms to approve — no invented prices, no fake stock counts.
What does the scrap & waste audit cost?
Request one through the intake form (option: Recycling Audit). The desk confirms scope and any fee in writing before work starts — the initial conversation and valuation intel are free.
What do I need to sell mineral rights?
Proof of what you own: the deed or conveyance into you, any lease and division orders, recent royalty statements if it's producing, and the county/state and legal description. The intake checklist we send covers it line by line.
How do affiliate commissions actually get paid?
Bullion commissions flow through the dealer programs — JM Bullion and SD Bullion via Awin pay $25 per new-customer qualifying order once our applications are approved. Service-referral commissions are set in your written partner agreement and paid on business that closes. Full terms come with approval; we don't promise earnings.
Are the prices on this page live?
No — they're a dated reference snapshot (Friday, November 6, 2026) from COMEX settlements and published spot boards, labeled as such. Spot moves constantly; any real quote we bring you will carry its own timestamp.

Still deciding? Start the form — the first reply is pricing research and your options, in writing. Nothing is listed, offered, or bought without your yes.
