No dramas- I often use ppm which seems to throw a lot of people a curve ball
Well ppm and milligrams has no direct relevance.
Neither do per cent and milligrams.

Milligram is one thousands of a gram and microgram is one millionth of a gram.

Per cent is parts per 100
Per mille is parts per 1000
and ppm is parts per million.

This can be sheep, apples, grams or what ever.

It is up to us to use the concepts correctly.
 
How much does the chip (the whole unit - as pictured) weigh

In other words trying to figure out what recovery would be per pound (454 grams) &/or per kilo - and how many you would need to make a pound &/or kilo

In the context of refining ewaste ppm is actually the simplest Ygg. 100ppm gold equates to 100g of gold per tonne of product.
That's a metric ton, 2200 plus a little pounds. Here in the states we short you by 200 pounds every time! We do, in defense of the colonists, label it a short ton. You can convert short tons to metric tons by multiplying short tons by 0.9071847.

However, PPM is the easiest measure when using metric tons.
