We are Buying ONLY SELECT Silver Until Further Notice

January 19, 2026

As of today we are now purchasing:

  • All silver bullion from LBMA certified makers.
  • 50 Ounce and smaller bullion from non-LBMA makers.

Our silver refining partners in Canada have temporarily frozen their payment mechanisms. This is a global issue in response to current market stressors. Elevated lease rates on silver have now made it impossible for Guardian to settle transactions under normal terms.

At this time we cannot purchase these silver products:

  • Jewellery
  • Silver flatware, tableware, and collectible items
  • Any Coinage
  • Non-LBMA certified makers bullion larger than 50 oz

These are temporary measures. Unfortunately, we cannot predict when circumstances will change, however, we will review this policy as conditions stabilize. We appreciate your understanding and patience during this time.

Platinum Group Metals

We Buy and Sell
Platinum, Palladium, and Rhodium
All Welcome – No Appointment Needed

PGM Platinum Group Metals

This is a group of six elements on the periodic table: iridium, osmium, palladium, platinum, ruthenium, and rhodium. They are noble precious metals and have similar characteristics. They are very corrosion resistant, have excellent catalytic properties, have high melting points, resist tarnish, and have high mechanical strength.

We trade in palladium, platinum, and rhodium. Please note that market prices on Rhodium are very volatile.

Palladium

Palladium is represented by the symbol Pd on the periodic table. It is a silvery-white metal that is primarily used in catalytic converters. It is also used for dental applications, electronics, and jewellery. Palladium is rare and is primarily mined in South Africa and Russia, followed by the USA and Canada. Most mined palladium is used in industrial applications. Investing in Palladium is typically done by buying pure palladium bars and coins such as the RCM Palladium Maple Leaf.

Platinum

Platinum is represented by the symbol Pt on the periodic table. It is a silvery-white metal that is primarily used in catalytic converters and for jewellery. It is also used in chemical production, petroleum refining, electronics, glass making, and many other industrial applications. For many years standards such as the length of a meter or the mass of a kilogram were defined by items made out of platinum-iridium alloys. Platinum is even more rare than palladium and the majority of the world’s supply of it comes from South Africa. Investing in Platinum is typically done by buying pure platinum bars and coins such as the RCM Platinum Maple Leaf.

Rhodium

Rhodium is represented by the symbol Rh on the periodic table. It is a silvery-white metal that is primarily used in catalytic converters. It is also electroplated on jewellery, typically for white gold, and on sterling silver items to resist tarnishing. Rhodium is one of the rarest elements on Earth and is primarily mined in South Africa followed by Russia.

The global market for, and supply of, Rhodium is very small so changes in the economy and demand make large and volatile changes on the price. Please contact us for pricing information.
