‘Pioneering’ facility will extract precious metal from up to 4,000 tonnes of scrap circuit boards a year
Aren't they buying our waste to extract the precious metals? So now we basically sell the waste to them pre-extracted
Mint is only interested in one metal.
Others exist in e waste. Somi assume it would just be reduced price.
Of course I am in no way agreeing the exporting of dangerous heavy metal waste etc is a good thing. Just not likely completely unwanted.
Of course not that’s ridiculous, they make Royal® Brand Mints! They need gold for the wrapper foil. After all choosy Royals Choose Royal®’s!
DISCLAIMER, the royal family in no way endorses, enjoys encourage or engages with Royal® Brand candy
