innovation and technical progress, environmental
protection and energy saving, and thereby
enhance
the quality of life. Precious metals are
highly
recyclable which means that they can be
recovered
when a product containing these
materials
has
reached the end of its useful life.

components which once having come to
light from
underground can be re-used time and
time again.
