Fascinating you should mention those 2 categories...because they drew my attention as well, but for different reasons, Jaakko... Fashion jewelry would be considered anything less than 18kt I would suspect. 24K jewelry, such as is common in India, Asia, China, and the Tiger Nations IS used as jewelry because it IS 24K. Furthermore, "fashion" jewelry would also cover "plated" jewelry category. It has been documented for years by the World Gold Council that over 16mil oz GLOBALLY is discarded annually ABOVE GROUND from various mfg sources. That is 3x ABX's annual production. It has been going on for the last 25 some odd years, and will continue at this rate in to the foreseeable future, frankly. Such steady discard levels are why folks like me make good ROI $ in recycling gold for $20 per oz cost ( worldaccessnet.com ) This monogram charts on Alex's proferred URL is about ABOVE GROUND gold supplies. I frankly found it curious he didn't break out "discarded gold" that is the life's blood of us "de-manufacturing types" carry on... O/49r
