JSMO processes nearly 62 metric tons of gold, silver products in first half
The Jordan Standards and Metrology Organization (JSMO) processed approximately 62 metric tons of locally produced and imported gold and silver jewelry and bullion during the first half of 2026 as part of its inspection, hallmarking and legal purity verification services.
Acting Director General of JSMO Wafaa Momani told the Jordan News Agency (Petra) that the organization hallmarked 4,850 kilograms of locally manufactured gold jewelry and 1,750 kilograms of imported gold jewelry during the reporting period.
She said JSMO also inspected 2,650 kilograms of gold bullion and 49,100 kilograms of silver bullion, while the total volume of silver jewelry processed reached 3,450 kilograms.
Momani added that the organization conducted 211 inspection visits to jewelry shops and workshops during the first half of the year.
She said the use of portable X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analyzers during inspection campaigns has strengthened field oversight by enabling inspectors to instantly verify the legal purity of precious metals without the need to collect samples or damage the inspected items, while also improving the efficiency of inspection operations.
Momani urged consumers planning to purchase gold jewelry to ensure that each item carries the official JSMO hallmark and to request a detailed invoice showing the jeweler's name or official stamp, the date of sale, the type of jewelry, its legal purity, weight in grams, the daily gold price according to the Jordan Jewelers Association's official bulletin, manufacturing charges and the total purchase price.
She also encouraged consumers to report any violations through JSMO's hotline, official website, the government 'Bekhedmetkom' platform or the organization's social media channels.
