50 milligrams will come out of it?

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.

So at 36.9 gram per chip = 12. 3 pieces per pound or 27.03 pieces per kilo

12.3 pieces X 0.05 = 0.61grams/pound = $53.88 current spot

27.06 pieces X 0.05 = 1.35grams/kilo = $119.25 current spot

Not the best in recovery - considering fingers on average (plus/minus) run about 1.5 grams/pound (or 3.3 grams/kilo) --- as do most (modern day) "fully" plated pins

And this does not really surprise me as I did a small batch of these like 7 - 8 years ago --- I don't remember batch size & or recovery - just that I was disappointed --- enough so that I never tried processing another batch & just sold them off to my board buyer

Anyway - thanks for posting as it provides "some" data on another type scrap

Yes since there is a million gram in a metric ton.
But ppm, ppb and per cent are still relative sizes that have no meaning unless you tie it to a unit.
I know in the daily speak our "creative laziness" comes into play.

Well, it’s incorrect to compare with gilded fingers.
considering the thick ceramic base + thick glass versus 2 mm. textolite.
It makes sense to compare with other ceramic processors of a similar type.

Thanks for the information about fingers.
 
0.05g? I think they may be better.
and in order not to multiply new threads, what do you think is the cost-effectiveness of such micro-assemblies compared to the total weight.
