Why Gold Prices Change Frequently
The main reason gold prices change daily is due to supply and demand. If the demand rises and the supply doesn’t match, the gold price will increase. For the supply, things like mining outputs, gold reserves and manufacturing issues can all affect the availability of gold. The demand then comes from a range of different industries such as technology, jewellery and the investment market. At Cash4Gold we track the live market very closely so we can offer market beating rates which are updated hourly. We make sure you receive a fair and accurate price no matter what you’re selling.
How We Calculate Your Gold Value
Valuing gold depends on understanding its purity, the current gold price and verifying its authenticity. These factors help us know the true worth of your scrap gold and ensure you get a fair price.
To evaluate the gold purity, our trained and experienced valuers use a highly sophisticated technology which uses X-Ray fluorescence with 100% accuracy. X-ray fluorescence (XRF) technology uses a burst of X-rays to perform rapid, non-destructive elemental analysis on materials. The gold needs to be weighed accurately. For this we use highly accurate, laboratory calibrated Troy Ounce weighing scales. The price evaluation is based on the weight of pure gold it contains, not the total weight of the item.
