Description
Handheld XRF for Non-Destructive Precious Metal Testing
Fast, non-destructive precious metals verification for jewelry, coins, bullion, and scrap. Measures a 4 mm spot to a 10–20 micron depth, with SDD detector performance, built-in camera, and easy export of results over Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/USB.
Jewelry buyers and precious metals dealers frequently use new handheld XRF analyzers to verify karat purity and elemental composition on the spot.
What it’s used for
- Karat verification and precious metal screening (Au/Ag/Pt/Pd alloys)
- Jewelry, coin, and bullion testing (non-destructive surface analysis)
- Intake verification, buy-back, and documentation workflows (save/export results)
Elements it can measure in the Precious Metals App
- Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, W, Ir, Pt, Au, Pb, Bi, Zr, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, Ag, Cd, Sn, Sb
- Not measured: Aluminum (Al), Magnesium (Mg), Silicon (Si).

FAQs
Does it damage jewelry or coins?
No — XRF is 100% non-destructive and does not require acids or scraping.
How deep does it measure?
Up to 20 microns into the surface.
Can it measure aluminum, magnesium, or silicon?
No — the Gemoro XRF Pro does not measure light elements such as Al, Mg, or Si.
