Actually it is left in the body and what is left is ground up in a bone grinder. The people who handle the cremation sort through this. I have metal in my back and told my daughter to get the surgical metal and take it somewhere to make a rememberance piece of jewlery out of it. I asked a funeral person about this at a funeral of a relative. During the wake, pretty morbid I know but when the person is at hand and the question is eating at you, you ask. On the flip side I did find out you have to have a urn and small vault if you planned to be burried in a cemetary. However the options are endless to a place to scatter ashes. legally or ill legally. Both my Aunt and uncle are scatered at a lake in Canada they frequented. I thought about being shot up in space but they only take a small portion and you end up burning back up in the re-entry... a waste. So anyways after you are cremated some large bone matter remains and of course the metal they grind the bone up but the metal if you don't ask for it they may or may not have a hefty collection of high priced scrap metal from others. I hope I helped you and God Bless you in your journey!

They can cremate you then remove metal from ashes before putting into urn.

No, it doesn't. Any metal or other foreign materials remaining after cremation are removed and discarded.
