    the old GP RF connectors will run 1.25-2g/Lb in gold.



    Eric is it your estimate after GP RE connectors are processed, removing wire, solder, dielectric and such? In other words processed so only GP metal is left. If so assuming refiner, refines to 24k gold, how much gold after refining? Are is it 1.25 - 2g per pound after refining? If it's the later and to 24k, at say 1.5g per pound, that's $62 worth. Will need more than 2 Lbs. for a meaningful transaction for refiner and self. Does anyone know what is a good working weight for refiners? What's acceptable minimum weight to refine? Has to be good for both refiner and scraper.
