Hi Barnes , how are tricks?
I hope your well!
First off , I'm a noob myself so please don't take anything I say as gospel , what I have learnt here has mostly just come from reading , and not from experience! :mrgreen:
With regards to ram sticks , I have at least 5kg of them , if not more ( can't remember exactly how much ), and I have trimmed 320 grams of close cut fingers from them.
Theyr'e only small fingers , so to make a kg of them would probably take considerably more ram sticks.
I believe the average yield for these types of trimmed fingers is around 2 or 3 grams a pound , or roughly half a kilo.
There is also values inside the black flatpack I.C.'s mounted on them.
With regards to sim cards , I believe that they have around a milligram of gold on them ( 1000 sim cards per gram , or 31,103 per troy ounce ).
It's probably worth considering they're condition aswell as what little gold is there to begin with will be worn away by cycles of use.
Don't let that put you off though , I have a small pile of sim's that I keep in a jar with other random bits 'n 'bobs that I've been saving to process one day , as they say "it all mounts up" , or to put it another way , a grain of gold may seem insignificant , but many grains make an ounce , 8)
All the best with it and kind regards ,
Chris
Edit , it just occured to me that some of my ram sticks , maybe a pound or so , are silver / tin fingers so my numbers might seem a little off with the amount of fingers that I've trimmed , but I think you can get the gist , :mrgreen:
