Depopulating circuit boards for GOLD, PALLADIUM, SILVER, COPPER, and ALUMINUM. 

This one your best informative videos....maybe do one breaking down the silver and palladium stuff

My eyes don't see scrap materials, they see beautiful electronic parts for lots of experiments and projects. It breaks my heart to see them simply destroyed like that; I can't look because it brings tears to my eyes.

The little "chip" with gold band around are gold band crystal oscillators. The gold on the LCD boards is flashing, not plating. It's a lot thinner.

Hello TM. The copper components attached to the heat sinks are diodes called mosfets. I was surprised that the scrap yard would take as #2 copper since they are only 70% copper. I go ahead and bend them to crack off the plastic. I am glad my scrap yard takes low grade boards at 0.15/lb. Ewaste Ben says throw them in with shred/appliances which seems counter productive since they have already been sorted out. Love to see you passion. Thanks for sharing.

This video was really helpful, per usual! Thank you for always being so descriptive and passionate about scrapping! Excited to see more about your extraction projects!

I depopulate boards and I still like to watch other people do it and people showing what items they go for

FYI, chip with the gold plated prongs are CPU chips, not sure why I was not saying that each time!

you are awesome! thank you so much for your videos!

Those mosfets are silver plated over the copper

Thank you for your content it has been helpfull in consonsidering to do such things as this my friend showed me different things and he's gone so that's for inspiration

Great job, a lot of micro work /cheers

I love your videos, what yards do you go to?I found one good one in Toronto(Manville Recycling)

Capacitors contain toxic substances. Depends on how old they are what substance you'll be exposed too. Wear plastic gloves when handling them.

And one day do a silver refining video then a gold one 👍👍👍👍

Great information

By weight the board themselves are like 80% copper after processing pretty sure scrap yard will not take it though

أنت رائع ومميز حقا بدون تحفظ لك الوقار

Like to see you get the silver out please. Thanks

Prongs? Called "pins" here in us!

I just broke down a computer tower and found the heat sink was sheet copper attached to aluminum instead of extruded aluminum. First time I've ever seen this.

Is there any thing in there that will shock you

You can get HMS prices for any motor armature. 👍

Where do you sell the gold to? who gives you the most money for the gold and silver?

Wait.. when you say "Tin" do you mean literal "Sn" on the periodic table? Or does tin refer to an alloy of some sort in Canada?

Can you please do Some reshearch About gold corner bga chip They are the best chips for gold recovery the one next to the memory card and flatpack of chips are the second best

How do you sell capacitors ?

Using the word mold talking about extruded aluminum isn't a good word to use considering thats how cast is made

paintet Alu do not oxidate with 02, all oxi is lost Alu

Too bad your're so ham fisted Tin Man... some of those parts you are destroying are worth one hundred times what you get for the scrap you make them into. By beating them off circuit boards, and pulling out copper plated steel parts... you're cutting your revenue 100 times what it could be. Used electronic parts.... especially vintage ones... are expensive... and hard to find.
