The coppers probably easy enough to get most of it. The gold will mosty be thin bits on the circuitry and you’d need extensive work to remove it and process into a sellable product.

True, but if you had 1000 circuit boards, i’ll bet you could find an interested buyer that knows how to do the complicated bits.

CodysLab on youtube has a series where he extracts gold from things, if anyone is interested. Yea it’s a lot of work. Here is extracting gold from RAM www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhuwO8AjM7k
