  • Fuck, now i broke my parents phone just to get some gold.

  • even the sea has gold dispersed in it but the concentration is so low it's not worth extracting. same goes to this, if that really has any percentage of gold that is

  • @SergioSource People extract gold from the sea.....

  • @TechnicianMad I'm not saying gold in the sea, I'm saying gold atoms disolved in the sea

  • isn't gold, is plastic with miligrams of gold.

  • OK, I did Scrap$treasure and learned where to find the gold in cell phones and other communication devices. But I prefer to focus on silver because the price is going higher and there are a lot more items that contain silver such as my favorite, microwave magnitrons.

  • thats not gold its brass

  • @LOGANUVA its actually gold, they use gold in cell phones because it doesnt corode

  • @LOGANUVA Wrong, it's gold. I don't understand why this is so hard for people to believe. Gold is always used in electronics because it is easy to work and can be made into thin wires or flat pieces, it does not corrode, conducts electricity better than any other metal, and works in temperature and humidity extremes

  • muaahhahahaha who is the admin of this video omg xD :L

  • finally ! i can get some use from my shitty shitty iphone !

  • that big thing where buttons come isn't actual gold is it ??

  • @musicvidsandshit Its gold leaf basically its micrometers thin people even eat it with 5 star meals its such a miniscule amount it wont harm you.

  • If you buy a whole bunch of cheap phones and sell the gold in , it'd Probly be a good deal cuz you could more money then the phone every costed

  • @raisbkyl001 DUHHHHHHHHHHHHH

  • How many cell phones would it take to get 1kg of gold? Porbally alot. Idk if its worth it,

  • @angeriod

    yea, i bet its a looooooot of them. its not worth it for a normal human, i think there are a few milligrams of gold in each cellphone, if not less.

  • Finally, a use for Nokia phones!

  • Nice SIM card..

  • why are u wasting time to make this video lol

  • why was it recorded with justin biebers hair?

  • @Adam13115511 That makes no sense whatsoever

  • @TechnicianMad its surprisingly true

  • @clone63742 What is true?

  • @TechnicianMad that there is gold in cell phones

  • Comment removed

  • Only fucking tweekers do this shit.

  • What Kind Of Potato u used??

  • You would make more money selling it on Ebay for $0.99.

  • now take it in your ass

  • That really is gold... elekricity flows trough gold very fast and this makes elektric currents more faster and better, but the amount of gold is so small that with 10 cellphones you wouldnt even get 1 cent. With one 1cm x 1cm x cm cube of gold you can spread it out so it is as big as a tennis field, And when you get 1cm^2 square of gold from one cellphone is it not that much

  • every little bit counts

  • Money was neevet a problem for chuck norris,he ppoops gold ingots

  • thats retarded LMAO

  • YOU ARE GOING TO NEED ALOT OF CELLPHONES BEFORE U MAKE ANY MONEY

  • Heres the "gold" (yea the color) from your phone. Buy gold spray paint, spray it on paper, there is the gold from your spray can. lol

  • why does it have gold?

  • zpoppe, Can you tell me roughly what one cell phone contains in gold? I have quite a few old cell phones are and was going to start posting ads for cell phones ppl are throwing out. want to know if its worth doing or not?

    thanks for your time,

  • @idiotsniff id google it. i know many companies pretending to donate the old cell phones to homeless, soliders, etc, but if you get a ton of cell phones, you get a bit of gold

  • i bet the tooth fairy knows that's fake

  • And where do you take the gold so you can get cash?

  • @PlayerFive5 plenty of people are buying gold in my city their are 3 buildings that buy gold

  • these pictures were take with a calculator..

  • Here are some statistcs

    1000 kg = 1 ton = of mobile phones = 300 g of gold, 2.5 kg of silver

    its unlikely most of you will get a ton of moblie phones but lets say some of you manage to get 100 kg of old phones that should be 30 g of gold which basicly just over an ounze im not fully sure if the price is after the melting down process.

  • I love gold rush I've got gold fever been looking in the stream behind my house maybe I'll find the glory hole;)

  • waste of time, those items are plated with gold, you would need 5 truckloads of cell phones for 1 ounce of gold.

  • how we recycling thiz stuff in gold

  • 1 ton of cell phones equals 8000.00 dollars of gold in them wow true fact!!!!!

  • @dj26000

    lol do you watch gold rush alaska?

  • @dj26000 been watching gold rush i see=) good man=p

  • good profit.

  • I just want to add to my last two comments that just cause there is gold contained within some (or most, I don't really know how many on average have gold in them) old cell phones doesn't mean that there is a ton in them or that it's even worth that much. Some of the stuff in your cell phone could be gold plated but not 100% gold so basically what I'm saying is that you might be able to find gold within your cell phone but you'd have to be pretty lucky to find enough gold in it to make a fairly

  • That's why companies offer you to trade in or sell them your old phones, it's because they want the gold inside them. Even gamestop, which specifically sells games/consoles/game accessories only, has recently started saying you can trade in your old iPhone for games and/or money, I mean I dunno if an iPhone would have gold in it but if it did it would kind of make sense that they'd want it. I mean what would a gaming store want to use your phone for anyway? I dunno, but that's just my thought o

  • @FESotheFE Umm... Gamestop does that because they refurbish them and then sell them as used items..... -_- Basically they give you 50$ for an iphone, Refurbish it and sell it for $150 ;)

  • I don't know if all old cell phones do but some old cell phones actually have real gold in them, I even just got done watching an episode of Gold Rush and during which they stated that one of your old cell phones could contain as much as $8,000 worth of gold in it. I know not many people will believe this, heck even I'm having a hard time believing it, but it's true.

  • i think my keyboard has gold in it. its certainly old enough...

    no wonder a 25 year old keyboard fetches for $80!

    its got gold in it!

    (also the best keyboard ever made)

  • For everyone who doesnt know that there is actually gold in cell phones: You sound really fucking dumb when you talk shit about things which you know nothing about. I dont know if what he pointed out is in fact gold, but there is definitely gold in all old computing devices. A gram of gold (about the size of a sim card) is worth about 100 dollars. But a gram of gold can be hammered out into a sheet of gold 1 square meter in size without wearing thin. It doesnt have to cost as much as you assume.

  • Gold you say?

    Brass and copper. Close enough

  • If that's gold, why was this recorded by a banana.

  • @mycowthedog it are pictures -.-

  • Not brass, copper. Copper is conductive. Dohohoho, children stay in school.

  • No way that it's gold. It's probably brass, a cheap composition metal that looks like gold.

  • BULL $HIT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @nothingtopic if the phone was made out of fucking gold it wouldnt cost that much

  • If there was that much gold in each cell phone, each phone would cost at least $10,000.

  • @NothingTopic and thats why they say recycle all phones this video is true that is gold just the companys dont want you to get to it so they say recycle it and its just foil not much per phone

  • Just going back to that supertruths comment under what law is the possession of a fake gold bar illegal, if you did send it to one of those things then they would have confirmed that it was a forgery and sent it back. If they had sent you money for the fake gold (which is highly unlikely) then you still have not committed an offence only if you then declared the bar real when asked in full knowledge of it not so and proof of this only then could they have instigated illegal money freud and if y

  • stupid.

  • if they puted gold in every singel phone (and there are bilions of them) we would become poor -_-

  • lol thats not gold... maybe its gold color but not actualy gold... idiot

  • @RedenMusik483 if you do some research you'll find that it actually is gold

  • @merkin1711 you should do your research

  • who can u take lithium ion battery

  • I don't think the cell phone contains so much gold as what the video had shown..............

  • thats brass

    

  • @stupidliar77 What planet are you on that this all happened in about a year? That's the real story.

  • @SuperLie77 oh wait I'm sorry @SuperTruth77

    prove it! if you have all that money from that it should not be a problem to make a video with some documents as proof on this whole thing! or bank statement only showing the amount and the bank should be enough, if it is true?...

    well... go on, go on?... i will say i am sorry if its true. if not, good way of getting the top comment

  • Your a god damn salvage collector, So luck with that Fred Stanford! No your not , your not fit to even wipe Fred Fred Sanford ( Redd Foxx) ass. Stop spreading fucking bullshit, cause if you did the math on time spend. Efforts to collect others trash to make a quick buck, your trash man, It's a good job but, it fucking labor intensive Aka. It's a J.O.B. And you are just like most of us. Just. Over. Broke!

  • Idiots! stop believing these tools who post shit that they them selfs never even tried confirming the information or getting some understanding what the fucking talking about. The Earths oceans contain the highest levels of gold on earth! It takes

    Nature, time, and very rare special set of natural conditions for gold to begin to collect in the solid state we. Know and love! If you are in the business of reclaiming gold from. Computers labtops circuit boards, etc. Your a god damn Stan

  • The cellphone itself is worth more than the gold inside of it.

  • OK i believe you my dad just tell me that there is gold in cellphones! :)

  • Ok if it is real gold i have like 0,5 gold in my hand right now! :)

    7 cellphones

  • it is gold, it's just very trace amounts. hypothetically though you could get a fair amount from the number of phones people throw away. i wanted to know where the gold is found. good video, thanks.

  • how much gold did u get out of that phone???

  • probable less than the value of that phone hehehe..

  • cashless society . rfid chip mark of the beast

  • @Killuminatiuk proove it the mark of the beast we dont know yet

  • you are aware that not everyone has the same type of phone.

  • thats not gold?

  • @FISHandMINE Gold is a conductive metal. Most electronics would use gold, silver, or copper inside electronics. 

  • How much money did you get for that peice of gold from the phone?

  • LOL I love these idiotic fake vids it is like a sneak peak into a psychiatrists note book.

  • Did you notice it was plated gold?

  • There is gold in the cell phone that makes it work right, and selling a iPhone for $1500 would be absurd

  • psssttttttttttt it's fucking gold plating and only 5% of it is gold so if you can scrape it off about 1000 phones and take all the gold dust to a smelter who refines the gold YOU will make few $100 per lbs of gold dust ! I just did it after one month all computer processor pins contacts any gold plated sunglasses jewelry gold foil etc.. had 5 lbs of gold dust which some of it was pure 12 kt gold from your pentium processor chips i kept those pices sepaerate 1 collected $850 cash !

  • Most cell phones have a lot less gold than that

    O.o that's a lot of gold....for a cell phone...

  • how to get rare metals from battery and also show which is inside in ic

  • And gigabaloney your lying because fucking riddle me this:

    Why would apple sell something that had gold in it worth 1500 dollars and diamonds in it for 200 dollars get your facts in your lies strait before you make some poor dumbass break open his new I lphone 4

  • @Armyfreak5510 Wouldn't that be the dumb ass's fault for thinking this would work and not this video's fault?

  • @Armyfreak5510 Oh and Straight*

  • He pulled out copper not gold you idiots a computer has less than 1/8 an ounce of gold in it and a phone has 1/32 an ounce 1/8 an ounce of gold costs 50 dollars and 1/32 costs 20 dollars

    Before you go and start tearing open every computer you find think. It's a pain to get to the gold and by the time you do you get acid burns mercury and lead poisoning. This vids a total croc

  • yay now lets go smelt this and make grandma some golden earings opps i meant one earing oops i meant 1/4 of an earing lol

  • AAAGHH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!­!!!!!!

  • Why I am watching it?

  • @thebigdee100.. if the phone is broken and useless, youll least get something back out of it doing this dumbass! Get a brain before telling anyone to find something more productive to do

  • I just smashed a public phone box up being much bigger i thought it would have more gold, But i was wrong. Has anyone tryed a coke machine yet?

  •  HELLO!

  • I disassembled my 2 old phones, and got 1000$, when i sold the gold from it. The diamonds in the battery worth even more! In iphone 4, there is 1500$ worth of gold, so start mining now!

  • I mailed in an offcut steel bar (about 20cm x 6cm x 3cm) from an engineering works (spray-painted gold) to one of these ‘Gold 4 Cash’- type firms about a year ago, just for a laugh.

    They traced me & prosecuted me under mail fraud legislation- but together with my lawyer friend I then counter-sued for ‘trauma’. We said their advertising was ‘predatory’ & gave me ‘false expectations of prosperity’.

    I won & was awarded over $100k!

  • @SuperTruth77 brilliant ahahahaha

  • @SuperTruth77 No freakin way... Are you serious? That can't be true..

  • @SuperTruth77 half *

  • the sim card didn't pass the magnet test so no one gonna accept it unless ur gonna melt it yourself the mother board is good i do recomand getting bigger cell phones to get the most gold

  • if you are going to go through all this effort to get MAYBE a dollars worth of gold out of a phone you might as well drive your lazy ass out to a stream and learn how to pan for gold

  • @MF11283 you know that gold is worth about 50 bucks a gram... so even if he got only 4-5 grams out of that phone he will make more than trying to sell the phone and then the people he sells it to well do the same thing and make the money off it..

  • @chojin21 you'd be lucky to get 1 gram out of a phone

  • YOU GUYS DON'T KNOW EXACTLY HOW TO MAKE GOLD. THEY ARE SIMPLY BEING HEATED TO A CERTAIN DEGREE THAT WILL TURN THE MALLEABLE METALS INTO GOLD. THINGS TO DO:

    PREPARE:

    1. SILVER, ORE, IRON, COPPER (SILVER MUST HAVE HIGHER QUANTITY)

    2. MIX & HEAT THEM FOR ABOUT 4 HOURS AT 2200 DEGREES CELCIUS.

    3. THEN COOL DOWN

    4. REHEAT FOR 4 HOURS THIS TIME ADD PYRITE CRYSTALS (IRON SULFIDE) AT 1,100 DEGREE's.

    6. COOL DOWN AND REMOVE SOME EXCESS ORES.

    7. DIPPED IN A VINEGAR FOR 15 MINUTES AND THANK ME.

  • @pogpogcasino skipped one to 7, but im a nice guy so thanks. (will give that method some looking into though, sounds interesting.

  • @pogpogcasino thas how to make fools gold

  • @pogpogcasino i did that it was good meth

  • You'd get more from selling the fucking phone. Seriously, find something productive to do.

  • @thebigdee100 Rofl,i can buy those old mobile phones for 20% of the gold value i get out of them^^ so 80% profit:)

  • @thebigdee100 Math an patience with organization prevails. Obviously not going to give the business plan away, but if you can convince your city to hand over their old flip phones, you've just pocketed 100k plus in gold if you manage to get over 100 000 cellphones over the course of a few years. Not hard if your "productive",,,maybe you just need to learn to be more productive in things rather than a day to day job?

  • @thebigdee100 What if you just like gold for it's appearance... Or something... It's worth it.

  • @thebigdee100 He is being productive, what if you find a broken phone? That can't be repaired? What would you do?

    Sell it on ebay, you probably would.

  • @thebigdee100 gold rises in price old phones go down, derpmasterflex

  • @thebigdee100 its going off the basis that in a certain amount of time the price of gold he extracted would be worth more than the cost of the phone. It will take a while but it may pay off big time.

  • @thebigdee100 aww this guys all butt hurt cus somebodys doing something he doesnt agree with.

  • @thebigdee100 Stop being so butthurt

  • @thebigdee100 lol love it...

  • @thebigdee100 Seriously, if you thought you could profit from this you're a fucking retard. See if you have the brains to work out why theres no youtube videos (LIKE this one) that you can profit from.. :)

  • @d0peleaf profit is depandant on many factors.. many organisations employ workers to remove gold from electronic goods at a good profit margin.. pull head from arse!

  • @thebigdee100 you cant sell a shit phone like that....would you buy it??? didnt think so so yea just throw it away and forget about that gold you coulda had....fuck, all ya gotta do is soak it in some acid and quickly refine it..

  • fools gold

  • the sim card is made of tantalum

  • This is the stupidest shit i've ever seen. Just stick to stealing copper and aluminum you junkies

  • .015 makes cents cents make dollars :) but gold melts at high temp. i was watching ,could you just burn the phone and the gold would be left over?
