Hello

I have found these that are used as outlets on ovens and refrigerators. I was wondering how much does one contain approximately ?

The very first question you should ask yourself is: "how much does this item cost?"
If the answer is "under a buck" then it's not worh processing unless you have like thoudsands of pieces.

However, in your case that item contains no gold at all. It's the brass color that fools you.
 
In part...he is right,but what procentange of PPM are we talking?
Even this brass has a gold content.....
It's not worth to recover,yes it is true.
 
While this is right, so it is the fact that in the mentioned brass you can certainly find just any element, such as uranium, in traces (read few atoms) amounts.

Back to the real grounds, no - there is no gold in there.
 
theres gold in sea water, and as has been seen on the forum, theres gold in poop. :shock: but like the material in the photos it will never be reclaimed either. :lol:

This item is not sold anymore, it used to by the power plug on old refrigerators and ovens.
