Great video. I've modified my process a bit over the past few years and found that if I use too strong of a magnet to separate them I wind up losing quite a few. I prefer to use a weak refrigerator type magnet instead of neodymium as even the good ones can often have nickel on the contact pads causing them to stick to the strong magnet. After I soak in HCl I like to roast them to make sure I drive off 100% of the chlorine as this prevents any silver chloride from forming and makes the filtering simpler. I find I get a better yield this way. But as far as a first attempt and experiment I like what you did here. Thanks.
After searching YT, I finally found one that is clear with the process. I've been pulling MLCC's for a couple of weeks and have accumulated a whopping 57 grams so far. YAY!
I hope this produces enough precious metals to justify doing it. I have several bottles full of them, so I'm hoping to refine them down the road!!! Have a GREAT Day, and GOOD LUCK!!!
This is too coincidental! I've been searching CZcams today looking for a vid on mlcc refining! I haven't started watching yet but I'm looking forward to it!! Have a GREAT Day!!!

Another great episode and Cliffhanger lol. I'm sitting here wishing time would speed up, which at my age is not a good thing lol. Thanks for sharing, GL, HH and take care.
Can't wait for the next part..... Will BYS be able to filter what appears to be vanilla pudding? Will he find his clue? All this and more on the next episode. Same bat time. Same bat channel.
Like B J Crow said, it's way over my head but very interesting and cool to watch you are the Man to figure it out good luck Dino looking forward to seeing the next video have great day brother!
Not really sure about that, you would be adding allot of lead, tin, and nickel just to get a tiny bit of silver. Not worth it for me, mainly because of the nickel, which is not really a good thing to deal with in solution. I'm really one for trying to get all I can out of my scrap, but sometimes the risks just are not worth the payoff, if you know what I mean.
Yeah, nickel chloride is pretty toxic. I'm thinking of a way to quickly reduce my wastes to oxides. It's why I'm thinking of the acetate-peroxide method. The solutions with the base metals could be dried and then roasted. Acetate will burn off, leaving metal oxides.
At 8:00 I wouldn't expect any reaction.. you're basically testing Stannous Chloride with Stannous Chloride. That's not a criticism btw. Also I would suggest roasting and grinding the MLCCs after the HCL and before the HNO3
I don't remember what acids I was testing, with without going back and watching the video, but either way I have done these several times and several different ways, and the end has always been the same, a bit of silver & thats about it. Most of my tests have been on 100 gram batches so there my be a touch of PM's that I am not detecting. I have seen kilo batches yield a tiny bit of PGM's but not worth the effort as far as I am concerned. If they were like the "Old Ones" 100 grams should yield about 1.5 to 2.5 grams of palladium and at least 10 grams of silver, I get less then a gram of silver every time & no positives on any thing else. And lets not forget that the XRF comes up the same. I'm not saying there is nothing in them, but time, acids, and other processing materials is far greater then what your gonna get out of them. But hey, to each his own. Thanks for watching!!
Like the way you keep things in there each group. Got about 200 grams sitting a jar just waiting till have time.This is the kind of canning love to do.Do the ones with legs small clear bottle have other PMG in them (the real scary stuff)
Next time consider roasting the mlccs. It will burn off any organics (glues/binders) and allow more surface area for the acid to work. Also a grinding them in a coffee grinder would help.
Thanks will do that On the ones worth recovering. But as my test and the XRF Analyzer showed, unfortunately there's virtually nothing to recover on this type of mlcc. Thanks for watching.
@@ursamines7643 Should be a good method for the silver / palladium ones as well. Burning them off to make sure they are clean, and crushing them to increase surface area make perfect sense.
Backyard Scrapping I also had an issue with acids trapped in the MLCCs, I find that after I think I have rinses them enough, I will add baking soda. If there is a reaction then I will continue rinsing.
Your buddy done the street " that does more dangerous stuff than you " what kinda stuff is that ? Just curious , trying to guess that you would be getting info / advice from what other processes ? Thanks again
He goes after stuff I would have no idea how to do, rare earths and things like that I guess. To be honest I really don't know, he has never been one to talk to much about what he gets from things. For many years I saved my black sand from prospecting for him, not all from every where, he just wanted the stuff from vain mtn nc. I was very good at getting most all the gold out of my concentrates, so what he was getting from it I have again no idea, and he never said. I can say that as long as it was from that area he would pay $5 a pound for the black sand, which for the most part was more then the gold I was getting from it, so there was something in there that he wanted! Since that time I have just saved my "left overs" for him, and once or twice a year he shows up and picks it up. Again what he gets from it, he's not big on sharing. He is far smarter then I, because as far as I'm concerned what I give him is of no value, at least to me anyway. 🙄 well maybe not?? As far as danger goes, I'm pretty much at my limit, I don't care to go any further then I have, and I really don't even like the idea of working with PGM's and have no desire to go any further than that. Thanks for your question, hope this answered it.
@@BackyardScrapping I used to do dredging in No. Cal. 80s - 90s , and now back in MN . Picked up scrapping [ mostly electronics as a result of another hobby - ham radio & repair ] which got me into saving electronics for gold mostly , silver not so much - but I do not throw away ;) I know some on the platinum metals , & also do not see me processing in the future either . Have you looked into roasting your concentrates - to get more gold out off - that maybe what he is chasing , too bad he doesn't share much info .
Yes, I pretty much got all the gold unless it was amorphous. I would even go as far as the borax cone in the furnace from time to time to be sure I was getting everything. LOL believe me as hard as I work for that gold I did my best to be sure I got it ALL 😁😁😁
Yes I have, & yep its true. Problem is, finding the ones with the gold. Over time many manufactures have found ways not to use gold, but back in the day gold was used allot, as was silver and palladium, the latter two being far less expensive back then. Many many parts that contain no gold now days had gold in them back then, so it is possible to find gold where you would not expect too. Its kind of like the old prospectors used to say, "Gold Is Where You Find It"
@@999DusanGoldrecovery Brother you have a nose for Gold, lol if there is gold in something some where you will find it, old or new. Love all your videos, wish you weren't so far away, we could have a great time doing a video together!! 👍
Is that silver chloride that has formed because they have silver in them and i think you need to turn the MLCCs into powder because the palladium in in layers in between the ceramic and is not exposed on the outside
I've seen that done both ways, I.E. crushed and not crushed with the results being about the same. From what I have read and seen, if you have the time, the ceramics will break down on their own, crushing just speeds up the process, and as I had plenty of time I just did um as they were to see what would happen. In the end crushing or not crushing didn't seem to matter in my experiment anyway, as there is nothing left in the beaker now except white powder, the solids, the mlcc's are gone?? This is something I have not read about or seen this, so I'm wondering, I would imagine like everyone else. What's Up LOL.
Thanks for sharing with me this video about MLCC'S Are they worth the effort ( part 1 ) this is a very interesting video and thanks for sharing this my friend. i am having a live stream at 6pm i hope you will come to be part of my live stream and God Bless. and thanks again.
Patiently awaiting part 2 hoping you find both palladium and silver and I'm not wasting my time hoarding all the mlcc's because I have a lot. Have 2 55 gallon drums of boards that still need to be depopulate also. I have a ton of work to do. Can't wait for the next video.
LOL know what you mean, got 3 good size boxes of boards to do my self, and the computer guy just let me know he has more for me to pickup, but I will take all I can get!!
Yes I have seen it, but I don't have all the toys and chemicals he has, I also don't have his knowledge, especially about PMG's. I was taught refining by an old gold & silver smith years ago who learned how to do things on his own because he didn't like paying the fee's that refineries charged back in the day. It was actually quite costly back then. My knowledge is practical, trial and error, watching, and reading, applying many different methods I have learned over time to what I do now. I'm still learning, and hopefully I will continue to learn till the day I croak. That old man told me that "No Question Is Dumb" as long as the person asking truly wants to know the answer!
Should be ok, the hcl is used to get rid of the 1st crap metals. If you are doing modern mlcc's watch both parts 1 and 2, as far as I am concerned modern magnetic mlcc's are not worth the time or effort, only the old ones are worth going after in my book.
@@prospectorpete Thanks, I know that some folks don't have the spare time to watch every video, I've been so busy lately I've only been able to hit and miss watch myself. There are really some things I've been wanting to watch, but I just haven't had the time!!!
@@prospectorpete I do my best to watch as much content as I can from other channels, but as you know its getting to the point of being impossible to watch everything, but I do watch, haven't been commenting much on peoples videos lately, but I do hit the like button and give as much view time as I can to as many as I can. I don't know how these channels with huge subscribers have time to do anything!

@@cyclonicsilver2773 Don't know about that Brother, remember I've seen your work and I know what you do takes time and patience as well, but when you really enjoy what you're doing, its not so bad 😁😁😁
for most its a hobby, its fun getting PM'S from junk sure moneys good if can get for free why not :) but unless you buying large quantities material ready to process.. , just collect ALL mmlcs .. stockpile, don't be in a hurry, its all about quantity.. and when got enough process go for it and be happy you made PM'S from what really was junk. if you motivation is to get rich quik or find lots PMs.. going be disappointed and after all effort involved be disappointed in long rung
I agree, I just love doing it, and to do it you have to love it because it can be alot of work. Its very satisfying to me though when I can keep PM's out of the landfill. 😁
I am sorry But there is NOTHING but a hint of silver in these "NEW" mlcc's. If you watch the entire series you will see that not only my test proves this, but as of right now I have also sent six (6) batches of 100 grams each to be tested VIA xrf analyzer and all have come back exactly the same. All show only 1% silver and no other precious metals. I will give you this, its possible that my test was flawed, but I strongly doubt that the xrf test was wrong six times. By all means, if you still want to take the time to collect them that is totally up to you.
lol, I have had many people say I did this or that wrong, or that they get so much of this or that out of them, but after "several" tests on them and even testing more then once with xrf, I have gotten nothing even close to worth the time of harvesting them, a bit of silver here or there, and no pallidum. What I really think is happening out there is people have a bit of non magnetics mixed in and that is where the PM's are coming from. I know there is a bit of silver in the magnetics, but I am really beginning to believe its from the solder. The last batch I tested yielded 1/2 gram of silver out of 100 grams of mlcc's. I know back in the day when silver was $3.65 and ounce, I would have gotten 6 to 10 grams out 100 grams, even the good ones were not worth going after back then LOL!! Take care & thanks for watching!!
@@layarsentuh7665 I do not offer a course, nor do I know anyone who does. Best bet is to just search youtube and watch as many videos as you can about it. Processing PGM's is fairly dangerous, so take care if you plan on doing this!
I left you a message in Part II regarding your results (no spoiler here...) but you didn't mention the tantalum in your video or final results I don't think? I don't know a ton about it but if you have time here's a link to 2 yr old info on it... agmetalminer.com/2018/01/25/tantalum-lithium-markets-set-grow-over-next-four-years/ and a video regarding the tantalum capacitors that's way older (2015) czcams.com/video/opEsO9LV-_c/video.html
Thanks for the link, but I didn't mention tantalum because the video was about MLCC's and has nothing to do with tantalum. I think you are getting confused about what and which video you are watching and commenting on. I have never even made a video about tantalum, as I said in an earlier reply I think you need to watch both these videos again to see exactly what I said in them and what was going on in them.
Please stop using disposable gloves when working with nitric. both latex and neoprene will burst into flames faster than you can rip them off your hands, major safety tip.
I'm using Nertile, also not using fuming nitric, only 68% above 70% I know they are only rated a 1 out of 4. For the most part I try to only use them when I'm dealing with silver nitrate. Thanks for the tip though.

Its in Part 2, if you don't want to watch part 2, it was less then a gram of silver and no palladium.
@@BackyardScrapping nice. Ill definately watch it . I like your refining videos
@@prospectorpete Thanks, I know that some folks don't have the spare time to watch every video, I've been so busy lately I've only been able to hit and miss watch myself. There are really some things I've been wanting to watch, but I just haven't had the time!!!
@@BackyardScrapping i like your videos, even the long ones. hopefully some day youll have time to watch mine
@@prospectorpete I do my best to watch as much content as I can from other channels, but as you know its getting to the point of being impossible to watch everything, but I do watch, haven't been commenting much on peoples videos lately, but I do hit the like button and give as much view time as I can to as many as I can. I don't know how these channels with huge subscribers have time to do anything! I have a hard time just keeping up with my comments, making and editing videos, and just doing other necessary things, like eating and sleeping LOL. I truly never thought my channel would grow like it has, but I really do enjoy making the videos! There is allot of time spent alone in my little lab, doing the videos makes me feel as if you all are out there keeping me company. There is a cost for making them though, it adds allot of time to the process as well. I thought when I retired things were gonna slow down, LOL boy was I wrong, I've said it several times now, but I may get a job so I can take a break at work!! Thanks for commenting and watching!!!
DMG?
Dimethylglyoxime
Very Cool to watch but I bet if you figure a way to bottle your patience you would be A Millionaire!!!!
Wish I could do that!! But I'm also a fair editor, so you do see the parts where I'm not so patient LOL 🤬🤬🤬
Backyard Scrapping I bet but I don’t have half the patience you have as far as I can see
@@cyclonicsilver2773 Don't know about that Brother, remember I've seen your work and I know what you do takes time and patience as well, but when you really enjoy what you're doing, its not so bad 😁😁😁
for most its a hobby, its fun getting PM'S from junk sure moneys good if can get for free why not :) but unless you buying large quantities material ready to process.. , just collect ALL mmlcs .. stockpile, don't be in a hurry, its all about quantity.. and when got enough process go for it and be happy you made PM'S from what really was junk. if you motivation is to get rich quik or find lots PMs.. going be disappointed and after all effort involved be disappointed in long rung
I agree, I just love doing it, and to do it you have to love it because it can be alot of work. Its very satisfying to me though when I can keep PM's out of the landfill. 😁
Just wanted to correct you there is gold in the mlccs just not much
I am sorry But there is NOTHING but a hint of silver in these "NEW" mlcc's. If you watch the entire series you will see that not only my test proves this, but as of right now I have also sent six (6) batches of 100 grams each to be tested VIA xrf analyzer and all have come back exactly the same. All show only 1% silver and no other precious metals. I will give you this, its possible that my test was flawed, but I strongly doubt that the xrf test was wrong six times. By all means, if you still want to take the time to collect them that is totally up to you.
How much Kilo?
5 to 10 grams
اللهم صل وسلم على نبينا محمد وعلى آله وصحبه أجمعين 🌹❤️،،،

Please tell me anybody how much palladium, silver and gold in one kg MLCCs
No way of knowing that, it depends on the mlcc's you have.
Not from what I have seen so far.
lol, I have had many people say I did this or that wrong, or that they get so much of this or that out of them, but after "several" tests on them and even testing more then once with xrf, I have gotten nothing even close to worth the time of harvesting them, a bit of silver here or there, and no pallidum. What I really think is happening out there is people have a bit of non magnetics mixed in and that is where the PM's are coming from. I know there is a bit of silver in the magnetics, but I am really beginning to believe its from the solder. The last batch I tested yielded 1/2 gram of silver out of 100 grams of mlcc's. I know back in the day when silver was $3.65 and ounce, I would have gotten 6 to 10 grams out 100 grams, even the good ones were not worth going after back then LOL!! Take care & thanks for watching!!
How to drop Palladium from hcl
There was No Palladium to drop.
@@BackyardScrapping how much does the course cost to learn to reduce palladium from aqua regia.
@@layarsentuh7665 I do not offer a course, nor do I know anyone who does. Best bet is to just search youtube and watch as many videos as you can about it. Processing PGM's is fairly dangerous, so take care if you plan on doing this!
I left you a message in Part II regarding your results (no spoiler here...) but you didn't mention the tantalum in your video or final results I don't think? I don't know a ton about it but if you have time here's a link to 2 yr old info on it...
agmetalminer.com/2018/01/25/tantalum-lithium-markets-set-grow-over-next-four-years/
and a video regarding the tantalum capacitors that's way older (2015)
czcams.com/video/opEsO9LV-_c/video.html
Thanks for the link, but I didn't mention tantalum because the video was about MLCC's and has nothing to do with tantalum. I think you are getting confused about what and which video you are watching and commenting on. I have never even made a video about tantalum, as I said in an earlier reply I think you need to watch both these videos again to see exactly what I said in them and what was going on in them.
Please stop using disposable gloves when working with nitric. both latex and neoprene will burst into flames faster than you can rip them off your hands, major safety tip.
I'm using Nertile, also not using fuming nitric, only 68% above 70% I know they are only rated a 1 out of 4. For the most part I try to only use them when I'm dealing with silver nitrate. Thanks for the tip though.
Have you tested it, I know just concentrated nitric will do it too. It stains your skin orange for a week
@@joshuamatthew6040 No but I will thanks again!!
