Yes, the motherboard "headgrade" is extremely high, especially when compared to NEM's Nevada's strip mine. As far as a favorable comparison with a 2 gram per ton...I know a LOT of investors who would like to invest in an orebody with a 2g/pt orebody E&D play<grin>
Anybody want to bid on my hoard of motherboards....
Speaking of such things, have you seen the prices eBay sellers have been getting on scrap electronic gold? One batch recently brought $125 a pound...WHEW...rich stuff...
I had a buddy in Colorado (no, not Richard, sorry)...another Colorado buddy work down some 10 pds of electronic scrap for a scrap dealer who told him he'd split the throughput if he'd just reduce it for him. My buddy pulled 6 ozs of gold and 63 oz of silver from those 10#...turns out the scrap dealer had lucked across a batch of alloyed heat sensor contacts from a former employee of a space contractor for US govt. Nice haul for a couple days work, yes?
NICE SPLIT!!!
We just never know what we're tying into when we start working on this stuff!
gold_tutor on SI, eBay, AOL, Stockhouse, Yahoo, iHub, and everywhere else scrap Silver and Gold can be found! |
