Gold In Phone: Old mobile is not junk, the phone contains valuable things like gold..
The craze for smartphones is such that people get bored of their old phones within a short time after buying a new phone. People of all ages are using phones today, some people need it while some people have become so habituated to the phone that they cannot bear to be away from it even for a moment. Of course, you must have been using a phone for years but perhaps you too are unaware of the fact that many precious things like gold are used in the phone.
You might be shocked, but this is true. A few years ago, a report revealed that every iPhone contains silver, gold, platinum, bronze, and platinum. These precious things in the phone will become even more precious with time.
These precious things are used in the phone.
An iPhone contains about 0.34 grams of silver, 0.034 grams of gold, 15 grams of copper, 0.015 grams of platinum, and 25 grams of aluminum. Apart from plastic, glass and many other things are used to make the phone.
The phone which you throw away in a corner of the house thinking it is old is a very useful thing. The report also mentioned that hardly 10 percent of the valuables in the phones are taken out. Apart from this, about 34 kg of gold, 350 kg of silver, 16 tons of copper, and 15 kg of platinum can be taken out from 10 lakh phones.
Quantity of gold?
It is not easy to extract gold from old phones, this process is quite complicated. The amount of gold in the phone is very low, in such a situation, a lot of smartphones will be needed to extract more amount of gold. This is not easy because you cannot do the work of extracting gold from the phone at home, only a professional can do this work.
