I think he might be a jew or a gipsy. And I'd say a jew because gipsies'd steal it.

And I think in the end that little thing in his hand is mostly not gold. Because the golden aspect of those circuit contacts is merely a few atoms transfered to the surface of the copper.

haters, you people should be ashamed of your hater attitudes, this person went out of their way to teach others some knowledge they have, thank you computer recycling person for sharing your knowledge with me

Sort the gold into circuits that need cleaning, gold plated parts, gold plated pins, gold fingers, and solid gold large and small. Use a magnet to separate all gold plated steel this needs a different process than I am demonstrating.
