I collect them as well, hopefully one day I can make a silver bullion. Glad to see a fellow scrapper and person diverting our natural resources away from the landfill.
Actually in the more advanced countries, e-waste is not going to landfill but diverted to metal recycling and recovery businesses and they are recovering the pm's. More and more of us backyard scrappers are wising up and getting the pm's for our own benefit for hoarding and possible future value growth. The very best way to do this if you can is to get all your electronics from free curbside disposals from private homeowners. To protect yourself, as permission from the homeowner first. Your local councils frown on this practice because they want to get the value from e-waste. They say that the e-waste is meant for the councils and you are not allowed to pick it up from the their nature strips. I say that the e-waste is abandoned property and first come first serve. If you have to pay anything for e-waste then your profits will be reduced.
Great video Dusan!! I have been saving these switches and thought they contained Gold.. Glad I watched the video and will now process them for Silver!! Many Thx!!
Ah, I thought that was silver in there! Good thing I saved them! Now I need a method to separate tantalum from silver and palladium from thousands of little capacitors... ugh.
More than I expected from a jar of switches. I noticed some of mine when they break open appear to be gold plated and I would have to separate those. I guess I’ll keep collecting them. Thanks!
Hi Dusan! I always wondered if it's worth to collect them. BTW A few days ago I took the panel from a car computer that contained switches like that. It was a big surprise because the switches were gold plated inside! They had a large gold-plated membrane and contact points. Greetings from Poland!
i had a similar bunch of switches. instead of melting them with acid, or heat, i took each one apart, and kept each dot of silver. (had no idea these dots are silver!) can you melt these?
hello.love watching your videos..just something I was thinking off.aftet you burn the material and you starting crush it. would it be quicker and better if you got a old blender and put the burned material in and blend it to dust and use a shiv for the dust..has anyone tryed this
Dusan my bro, I am in the UK, have you got an email address or whatsapp I can talk to you on? I have a LOT of ic chips, gold pins, cpu feet, gold flashing on pcb, lots more. But in uk I can't buy Nitric or sulphuric, so come chat to me about what I have.

Always look forward to your videos. Very informative. I did not realize how much silver ate in those little switches. Pretty impressive.
So 5.5 grams from 357 grams of material. WOW, THATS 1/2 oz Silver per kg of switches!! Nice
You always do the refining of the things I hoard!! I Love it!!
Thank You very much!!!
Have a GREAT Day, My Friend!!!
Great video Dusan!! I have been saving these switches and thought they contained Gold.. Glad I watched the video and will now process them for Silver!! Many Thx!!
Great video, I was suprised with the result , to be honest I was ignoring this switchs...but not anymore. Thank you 👍
Wow you got more then I thought you would, great video, as always thanks for the information!! 👍👍👍
Been waiting for this vid glad its here

Wow the yield surprised me! Good job bud

Thanks!
Awsome brother. Thanks for the information
Game changing information, Dusan.

👍👍👍👍
Another awesome job buddy!
SHow how to melt it @ what temp and how?
Awesome video
How do you refine what you have just processed? Do you run it back through the acid test to get a higher grade .999 to .9999?
Can also be palladium
great video. How are your plum trees doing this year?
Another great vid, thankyou bro 👍
Excuse me is that middle part of the switch solid silver or just silver plated?
i had a similar bunch of switches. instead of melting them with acid, or heat, i took each one apart, and kept each dot of silver. (had no idea these dots are silver!) can you melt these?
What % hydrochloric acid do you ise?
Thumbs Up

what will desolve iron andnot copper ore silver
👍dusan they are tactile switches
Yeah, was going to say it didn't sound correct when I heard him say it.
Nice silver pice bro :D
Is the silver dot in the middle of the tactical switch pure silver or silver alloy?
Do they alloy silver and palladium in those switches?
Just wondering if it's possible to cupel the silver like people do with gold. Have you tried that yet?
You can cupel silver. There are a couple videos on it floating around UA-cam.
They are called Tactile switches
Hi sir hydrochloric acid and hydrogen peroxide how this works and Metal silver ayran
HCl and H2O2 is eating away other metalls like copper Cu, so Ag silver and Au gold stays untouched, remain solid in solution
cool 👍😀👍

What looking to do with it
I think it's tactile, not tactical.
