  Hi Ben, For some of the things you're not sure if they are brass or gold. Just a suggestion. I would get a gold acid test kit. you can rub the piece on the stone and find out if it even tests out to be gold of any karat. It could keep you from throwing out any gold. Really enjoy your video's sir. I always learn so much. You know what you're doing. Thanks for sharing

  This is incredibly long but one of the most important videos one needs to watch if interested in urban gold.  Highly recommended!  .

  Gold corner BGA chips, have most of the bonding wires in the top black part.  Many don't even bother with the bottom green half, despite the small bit of visible gold. Certainly the tops are processed separately and among the highest yielding materials.  Mast ash them, rinse with water and then pan out the pure gold bonding wires.

  Bake the MLCCs for several hours in a slow fire. &nbsp;It makes the ceramic very crumbly. &nbsp;You can then powder them easily. &nbsp;I&apos;m doing test batches of test-tube quantities of components, determining what solutions are best for each board component.
