Price for Sd Ram

[Barren Realms 007]

Yea get rid of the alum pipe as you can see it will not last. Use plastic pipe if you have it. I would try to work in a neutralizing barrel before the canister you have so any acid is neutralized in the 1st barrel.

I've just been through the cupboard, I've got 2 quarts of thick bleach, it says, " ingredients, contains less than 5% Anionic Surfactant." Its also got purfume(lemon) and disinfectant. Is this OK to use, was just going through Steve's videos on goldrecovery and was thinking of giving the AR a try :lol:

It would be better without the surfactant and the perfume but if you have nothing else it would have to do. If you have access to a swimming pool supply store they will have the dry bleach(chlorine granular). Use it in small amounts and be prepared for the smell.

I'll see what I can do in the morning :lol:
Just wondering if you knew anything about extraction/ventilation.
When I started off, I had deep concerns about the gases that would be released for my, kids sake and next door floks. So I purchased a 4" inline extractor kit with a carbon filter. The extractor is heavey duty plastic but the ducting is Aluminium foil. The ducting is starting to show signs of wear, the silver foil is starting to turn black, would it be better if I used 4" round plastic ducting?

Yea get rid of the alum pipe as you can see it will not last. Use plastic pipe if you have it. I would try to work in a neutralizing barrel before the canister you have so any acid is neutralized in the 1st barrel.

I'll keep my eyes open to see if I can get one of these neutralising barrels, just need to get the gold following becoz all thats happening now is money is getting spent and nothing is coming in :|

What and you think the spending is going to get better? ROFLMAO :roll:

When you see something that could be potentualy profitable, I dont mind the spending, but when you got a grizzly bear wife watching over your shoulder, it a problem, lol. Just had to open a seperate ebay account today and paypal account, but then thought, what am I going to say when the delivery comes to the door. :roll:

 

[qst42know]

Bargains (profit) on eBay are few and far between. Perhaps you should listen some to your wife. :lol:

You might try local sales. Gold filled or rolled gold are a far richer source of gold than almost any e-scrap and you may even come across some karat gold as well. As jewelery your wife may then gain an interest. :mrgreen:

I gotta say, is all this quoting necessary? Each of your replies contains a complete archive of the conversation you are having, and it grows with each. Can you just quote the relevant part, or hit the Reply button at the bottom of the page instead?

Thanks!! :twisted:

Guess you will just be grizzly food, she's gonna eat you alive, when first learning it is not a good Idea to spend much money, and ebay can be very risky, if you live after your wife finds out, spend more time learning, collecting free electronic scrap to learn with, once you have some Idea Of values and what to spend , and only after showing the wife the gold will she be more forgiving of your new hobby.

Just wondering how much would be a guide price to pay per sd ram? I recently bought 36 sd ram for £3 which is $4.20 for the lot and should work out to about $0.12 each. I've just been speaking to a bloke that can get loads of non working ram and he was asking how much I'd be willing to pay him for them.

Why not try cut a deal with this guy with the memory?
He supplies you with the memory for free, you supply him with Gold in return, minus your cut of course.

You need to bear in mind that you need a lot of scrap to get a little Gold.
This week, I was supplied with 388 sticks of SD Ram which weighs in at 7.7Kg
I will be happy if I can get 3g of Gold out of the fingers.

Sorry 4 dissapearing like that, my eyse were failing on me, this staying up till 1am is starting to get to me, but the science, maths and metals is what keeps me going :lol: not that Ive seen much of the metals isde of things. Just wanted to say thanks for all your comments, feedback and views on everything, its realy helping me build up on my knowledge and also helps me to see that things aren't the way that some have made it out to be. But hey, I've still yet so much to learn and I will strive off of that alone. One thing that I am struggling with is getting the scrap in the 1st place, people over here seem very reluctant on giving you there scrap, I've been to computer repair shops, they not iterested in handing over the good. They keep on going on about private info that might be stored on it, I even told them that I could damage the goods in there presance so that it would be impossible for me to obtain that info, not that I'm interested in it anyway and the only way that I can intise them is by offering them cash for it, but for me now, with the knowlegde that I have, its extremely difficult for me to put a price tag on the stuff :|

 

[chrisv]

Just one more thing, LAZERSTEVE, your a diamond :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
That process you told me to try :lol: :lol: :lol: , just went out to the shed(my converted lab), took a look at the beaker that had my last 2.5oz of cell phone recovered disolved gold that got filterred and added Soudium M in, yesterday after 4hrs, there was nit a thing :lol: :lol: :lol: I can SEE the black dust at the bottom and the liquid is as clear as drinking water," I'm so excited, and I just cant hide it, I know, I know, I know I've(we've) done it." :lol: P.S HEY BUZZ, could to see a fellow country men here :lol: , I'm not really born and bred here but hey, we're interested in the same thing at least :lol:

You talking about this one.

Some values are oversetimated. Just have my own results for Pentium Pro, I get 2,2 gr from 10 of them. I cant imagine somebody can get 1 gram from 1 CPU, as this table states. Also got about 0,17 gr per one 486 SX and DX CPU.

 

[lazersteve]

I think the data in this spreadsheet may have been planted here (either directly or indirectly) as propaganda for unsuspecting Ebay buyers.

Just another reason why you should keep good records and determine your own yield numbers.

Yields also vary with the methods you use to recover and refine the gold.

Don't pay anything.
I just place free classified ads on our local online classified sites saying "I'll pick up your unwanted computers and parts for free" and I get about 12 towers a week. It takes me about 10 minutes per machine to tear apart and sort various insides into recycle boxes which I take to the scrap yard for by the pound money. All the gold parts are trimmed off before hand. This week I tried Steve's video and recovered 2 grams ( see pic) of gold foil from 450 grams of trimmed fingers. I still have to process and melt. Yay, Free gold. BTW this is my 1st posting here, I enjoy all the postings.

If you are doing less than this wait till you have more saved up to process, you are going to do nothing but chase your tail trying to process this small amount till you learn what you are doing. And if you do this small amount you should go to HCL/Clorox till you know what is happening.

sorry but i dont understand for what about you use clorox Can you explain me ?

The combination of HCL/clorox will form chlorine gas and dissolve your gold.
