While waiting for the Mess to settle/decant/filter i've found a broken laptop, and would really like to get all the way to a tiny blob of gold.
It's a Gateway M465-E model and is intact, complete with ram, hdd etc.
My first thought is to break it up into the major and easily identifiable bits, such as PCBs, copper, plastic, steel etc.
Before going any further and just making another mess, it would be great to hear how an experienced e-scrap refiner would tackle a single laptop, and what weights of PMs one could expect to recover.
