Tips for Making More Money from Computer ICs and Chips: Extracting Gold

 People usually concentrate on gold and silver exclusively when recovering gold from ICs and chips. However, we lose three metals: copper, nickel, and palladium. Small-scale gold recyclers should be aware that extracting the aforementioned metals can also result in a significantly higher profit margin. I've watched gold recovery videos online where individuals use nitric acid to treat all the combined metals after burning chips or ICs in order to remove copper and nickel from gold wires. And, thus, they waste metals other than gold and silver. However, you must first use a sieve to separate all of the pins from the ash if you are processing integrated circuits for the recovery of gold. The gold wires go into the ash. There are two varieties of separated pins: nickel and copper.

Because nickel is magnetic, a magnet can be used to separate nickel pins from copper pins. These pins are store-able, and they can fetch you a good amount of money if they put on a significant amount of weight.

After extracting gold from the aqua regia solution, you must save it since it also contains palladium. Thus, take the palladium out of this solution. Chips contain 50 to 100 milligrammes of gold, while dip ICs have 50 milligrammes of palladium per kilogramme.

Hopefully, you now have a thorough grasp of how to maximise your profits when extracting gold from chips and integrated circuits (ICs) by applying the aforementioned procedures.
