Reception

Service Overview

Upon receipt of the shipment at Ophir premises. Ophir inspects the received parcels, boxes and containers with respect to outside damage, the number of parcels/containments weight, the kind of metal received and other contingent non-conformities such as radioactivity. All received metal deliveries will be examined immediately, with appropriate and sophisticated equipment to determine the fitness and quality of the product. Sample is taken to perform further preliminary analysis.

The material will then be weighed, homogenized and sampled in the presence of the Client, or Client’s Representative, provided that the Client has exercised its right to be represented. A representative sample is of utmost importance to the Client and to all further internal processes. We guarantee our Clients the best homogenization techniques and sampling methods for any kind of metal. Data from each delivery is recorded in Ophir’s SAP system for the safety and reference of our Clients and to ensure full control of each batch in our ERP system.

  • Logistics Processing
  • Weighing Processing

Step 1 - Precious metal transported or shipped to Ophir in co-ordination with the Client.

Step 2 – Ophir's Sales department will contact the Client's Representative to agree on the date and time on which weighing, melting and sampling operations shall take place, provided that the Client has exercised its right to be represented.

Step 3 - Upon receipt of the shipment at Ophir premises, an immediate inspection of the boxes/containers/parcels are conducted.

Step 4 - Each shipment shall undergo the radioactivity check. Should it be positive, the carrier will not be allowed to unload the material and the shipment will be rejected.

Step 5 - If any damage to boxes/containers/parcels are detected, or any of the seals on the boxes/containers/parcels are broken, Ophir shall immediately inform the Client about the extent of the damage to the boxes/containers/parcels or to the seals. Ophir shall immediately request approval to proceed with the weighing, melting and sampling operations. Pending the approval of the Client, the shipment shall be safely stored in Ophir’s vaults. Should non-conformities occur, depending on the process step (during unloading or upon acceptance of the delivered material) the Logistics department will segregate the material in the vault and wait for further instructions from the Sales department.

Phase 6 – Ophir's Logistics department shall verify that the received parcels are in full compliance with the details reported in the Advised Information, such as:

  • Name of Client/Sender/Consignee
  • Number of packages or boxes
  • Gross weight of packaging, bags and bars
  • Number of bags and bars
  • Total net weight of each bag and bar
  • Total estimated fine metal content of the shipment (per each metal) in troy ounces as per Client's assays
  • Certified copy of Client's assays in respect of the shipment evidencing the fine metal content estimates
  • Name of the Client’s Representative at the weighing, melting and sampling operations, if one is designated
  • Other information relating to the shipment as Golden Ophir may reasonably request
  • Once the Logistics department has checked, verified and approved the incoming material, the material is then moved to the Balance Room, arranged as per Client’s requests/instructions.

In the case of shipments requiring Client’s supervision by a Representative, the parcels are either temporarily stored in Ophir’s vault or directly moved to the Balance Room (sealed) where they are checked, opened and unpacked under the presence and control of the Client’s Representative.

Step 1 - Establishment of net weights

Before proceeding with the actual weighing of the material the balance shall be verified by using standard reference weights. The material shall be divided into melting lots according to the Client's specific instructions. If such instructions have not been previously agreed, the material shall be divided at Ophir’s discretion, according to the best interests of the Client, based on the kind of the received material and on Golden Ophir's melting capacity.
The total net weight of each melting lot is printed by the balance and recorded in the ERP system.

Step 2 - Comparison of net weights with the Advised Information

The established net weights are then compared with those listed in the Advised Information and Ophir shall promptly notify the Client or its Representative in case of discrepancies. The processing of the material will be deferred until Client and Ophir have reached an agreement on the difference. In the event the Client and Ophir do not reach an agreement on the difference within two Business Days from the date of notification, the material will be returned to the Client or to its Representative at Ophir's premises and at Client’s costs without any further obligation for Ophir.
