    General Questions

    01. What services does Dutch Courage Refinery provide?

    DCR specializes in same-day/next-day gold smelting and partners with LBMA-accredited refineries for high-purity (99.99%) gold refining. We handle everything from raw doré to market-ready gold.

    Our smelting service is typically completed within 24 hours of receiving your material. Refining through our certified partners takes additional 5-7 business days for maximum purity.

    We offer:

    • Faster initial processing (smelting done same/next day)

    • Simplified logistics (single point of contact)

    • Competitive rates through our refinery partnerships

    • Full documentation from smelting to final refining

    We only work with LBMA-accredited refineries that meet the highest international standards. You’ll receive certified assay reports at each stage of the process.

    Yes. We handle all necessary documentation including:

    • Export licenses

    • URA tax compliance

    • OECD due diligence

    • Assay certification

    Customer Feedback

    Reliable & Fast Smelting – Perfect for Urgent Orders!

    We've worked with several smelters, but DCR stands out. Their same-day smelting is a game-changer when we need quick turnaround. They handle logistics seamlessly and always provide clear assay reports. Highly recommended for African gold suppliers who value speed and transparency.

    Consistent Purity, Zero Hassles

    I’ve been selling refined gold to European buyers for years, and DCR’s product always meets LBMA specs. Their assay certificates are recognized worldwide, which eliminates disputes with my clients. The 5–7 day refining time is worth the quality.
    International Gold Trader

    Trustworthy Partner for High-Volume Refining

    As a large-scale doré supplier, we need a refinery that can handle consistent volumes without delays. DCR’s LBMA-certified refining partners deliver 99.99% purity every time, and their team manages documentation flawlessly. No surprises—just reliable results.

    From Doré to Export-Ready Gold in One Place

    DCR’s end-to-end service saved us months of coordination. They smelted our raw gold in 24 hours, refined it through their partners, and handled all export paperwork. For African miners looking to bypass middlemen, this is the solution.

    Ethical Sourcing Made Simple

    DCR’s due diligence process is thorough but efficient. They helped us align with OECD standards while offering competitive rates. Other refineries cut corners, but DCR ensures compliance without slowing down payments. A rare find in this industry.

    Transparent Pricing, No Hidden Fees

    After bad experiences with other refiners, DCR’s upfront fee structure was refreshing. They explained every cost (smelting, refining, logistics) before we started, and the final product matched exactly what was promised. Will use them for every shipment.
