Product Overview
Mixed accumulation of gold-plated electronic scrap weighing ~120 grams, assembled for precious metal recovery and refining. Material includes vintage electronic hardware such as machined connector contact pins, gold-flashed RF and coaxial connectors, TO-can transistor headers, dual in-line lead frames, and ceramic hybrid substrates with gold-metallized circuitry.
Key Features
- Lot weight: ~120 grams total weight
- Mixed contact pins: Machined connector pins and header pin strips
- RF hardware: Gold-flashed coaxial connectors and terminal contacts
- Semiconductor packages: TO-can transistor headers, TO-220 packages, and DIP frames
- Ceramic hybrid substrates: Gold-metallized circuit carriers with Texas Instruments markings
- Identified markings: RCA 2N1893, Motorola MC7912CT, and wire sleeve 1347260-01 REV.A
- Intended application: Benchtop precious metal recovery, hydrometallurgical refining, or component sorting
Applications
- Chemical gold recovery using hydrometallurgical leaching or aqua regia bench setups.
- Sorting and classifying connector pins and contact plating grades prior to melting or refining.
- Harvesting intact gold-plated pins, RF connectors, or vintage transistor packages for electronics prototyping.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a guaranteed gold yield or plating thickness for this lot?
No specific gold yield, plating thickness, or assay percentage is stated or guaranteed. The lot contains mixed surplus electronic components, and recovered yield depends on the buyer's refining process.
Does the ~120-gram weight include ceramic substrates and wire insulation?
Yes. The ~120-gram weight represents the gross weight of all items shown, including contact pins, ceramic carriers, plastic header strips, and attached wire insulation.
What condition are the parts in, and can they be used for functional circuits?
These components are sold strictly as untested electronic scrap for material recovery. Many pieces are cut leads, pulled pins, or disassembled hardware. While some individual semiconductors and connectors may be physically intact, function testing has not been performed, and the lot is sold as-is based on the photos.
Every pin and header in the pile did its duty in an earlier circuit. Now the gold gets a clean start in your beaker or crucible.
