Are you looking to sell it or just melt it?
If just melt it you can make up your own furnace to do it, but not sure why you just want to melt it.
If you plan on selling it do not melt it unless you separate the karat values. Melting mixed values could result in getting less money.

Didn't know there was such a thing as JUNK GOLD. lol
My scrap gold goes to a Smelter who I met through a friend. He gets 5% of melt value.
Whatever you do,, never sell your gold to a jeweler.
I know that there are friends who may be interested in buying some of my gold finds at above melt value prices.
Those finds would be in the form of a really nice ring or cross which I usually hold on to.

To tell you the truth I bought everything that was needed,but the torch didn't heat the cup thing hot enough to melt it. That's why I was asking where can I just go get it melted at because I don't have time to keep buying more butane lighters. Lol
