Metalor Technologies is a Swiss precious-metals group (HQ Marin, Neuchâtel; ~1,500 employees; wholly owned by Japan's Tanaka Holdings since 2016) organized around three lines: Mines & Recyclers (assay, refining and recovery of precious metals from ore, doré, industrial scrap and e-waste), Banks/Traders/Investment (LBMA/LPPM Good Delivery bullion bars, coins, authentication) and Industries (precious-metal powders, electronic plating solutions, strip/wire assemblies, and fine-chemical/pharmaceutical catalysts including spent-catalyst recycling).
GLEIF (checked 2026-09-06) has an ISSUED LEI for Metalor Technologies International SA (the group holding entity; distinct operating-subsidiary LEIs exist for CH/US/HK/SG units, each reporting Metalor Technologies International SA as direct+ultimate parent) but that top entity itself reports no parent on file -- Tanaka's ownership is not in GLEIF's optional relationship data. The 100% stake is instead sourced to Metalor's and Tanaka's own 2016 acquisition press releases: Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo K.K. signed to purchase 100% of Metalor Technologies International SA's shares from prior owner Astorg, completing the deal in 2016. No dossier exists for Tanaka Holdings/Tanaka Kikinzoku Kogyo in this corpus, so no parent_slug is set.
Named counterparties identified by open-source research and written only where a primary source states the relationship — never inferred from sector or co-mention. 2 suppliers. This is a partial view: it covers the relationships we could evidence, not the company's full supply base.
Metalor's own site: Metalor 'channels and refines' MYSAC's (Arequipa, Peru) gold through a segregated, traceable chain of custody under the Swiss Better Gold Association. MYSAC produces ~45,000 oz/yr, about one-third from ~300 artisanal miners it formalizes -- that share is MYSAC's own production mix, NOT Metalor's share of MYSAC's output or of Metalor's total feedstock, which is not disclosed.
Pan American Silver's FY2024 AIF: 'Shahuindo produces gold in the form of doré bars and has contracts in place with Asahi Refining Canada, Argor Heraeus and Metalor in Switzerland, for refining the doré produced on site.'
Scope. Absence of a counterparty here is not evidence that none exists — most commercial sourcing is confidential and never becomes public. Rows without a share figure mean no share was disclosed, not that the relationship is small.
Another tracked dossier names this company as a counterparty in its own sourced disclosure — this platform never wrote these rows on this company's own page, they are read here inverted from the dossier that disclosed them. This is a partial view: 984 additional named-counterparty rows across the corpus could not be matched to a tracked dossier by name at all (mostly non-Latin legal names), so the true count is higher than what renders here.
Shahuindo technical report (Form 6-K, 2022): 'Shahuindo produces gold in the form of doré bars and has contracts in place with Asahi Refining Canada, Argor Heraeus and Metalor in Switzerland, for refining the doré produced on site.' Refining-service contract, not a purchase of the metal; seen via search excerpt, page not opened.
Scope. This section is inverted evidence: each linked dossier wrote the original row about itself, describing its own relationship to this company. It is never a claim this company itself disclosed. Absence here is not evidence of no relationship — most of the corpus has no named-counterparty block at all yet.
This company sits on the supply side for 3 of its 3 materials — a restriction on those is a tailwind, not a headwind.
As a producer, policy pressure across its produced materials is coverage-limited.
Descriptive trend in official policy actions on this company’s materials — a policy-pressure trend, not a price or trading signal. No forward probability is implied. Direction is measured on actions we have discovered, and discovery lags events: where the recent window is too thin to support a calm reading, the row says coverage-limited instead of easing.
No actions in the register have named or swept this company in the last 24 months.
