Choose recycled urban-mined gold for new pieces

Commission jewellery from metal that already exists C. Hafner in Wimsheim near Pforzheim refines gold exclusively from secondary sources — scrap jewellery and e-waste urban mining — with published life-cycle results showing far lower CO₂ than primary mine gold. Ask jewellers for verified recycled content; route broken electronics through municipal collection so metals can re-enter refiners like this. What you can do - Ask your jeweller for 100% recycled / secondary gold before ordering a new piece - Read C. Hafner’s secondary-gold footprint note - Drop e-waste at your city’s collection point so boards can feed certified urban-mining streams How it works Refiners melt and refine post-consumer metal. Independent studies (INEC / Hochschule Pforzheim) compare secondary routes to mine gold; jewellery scrap recycling beats both e-waste and primary routes on CO₂. Why it matters Beauty that already exists can be remade — urban mining turns yesterday’s gadgets and heirlooms into tomorrow’s tools of care.
