keyboard mylars

[patnor1011]

Does anyone have any data on silver content? I know there is no exact figure but say from/to may be cool to know from people who already done them at some quantity. I am asking as I am getting more and more of them and I wont be able to process them myself due to lack of time and probably end up selling them. I just want to figure out a deal where me and potential buyer both will be happy.

I don't know myself but i found this forum:
https://www.scrapmetalforum.com/non-metal-recycling/18478-all-about-keyboard-mylars.htmlPart of the text:
1 lb of mylars will yield around 12 - 15 grams of silver
* 1 lb of mylars will yield a different amount of silver than another mylar.
* It takes approximately 2 lbs of mylar to yield around 1 ozT of silver.

I hope it helps.

Interesting. They are saying that lcd monitors do have mylars fully covered with silver. I am wondering if anyone else can confirm this.

I would be interested in the monitor myth.
