Since I have found this forum I've been collecting as many cpus as I could. A few days ago I decided that I should extract some gold from 30 ceramic Pentium 1 cpus. The process worked fine and I dropped the gold with PMB (P for potasium). After a nice melting with just a regular burner I had a nice shiny gold button. Today I went to a goldsmith and he measured it. It was 1.77 grams and according to him it is around 22k.
The cpus were mixed I admit. Some were with MMX technology and the frequency was 75, 100 and son MHz. The yeild should be considered as average for this kind of cpus.
I suppose I have some losses.
I suppose there is gold in the solder between the two ceramic lids but I haven't processed them yet.
So, 1.77 grams / 30 = 0.059 (0.06) grams per piece.
P.S. Now in the glass dish there are 22 486 cpus (mixed again). Expect the data ASAP.
