I've been reading a lot about tantalum capacitors and because I see many on the older telecom boards, I removed a few today. Now my math is not very good but 13 of these caps weigh 0.1 oz.
So according to my math it would take 2240 to make a pound and this particular type sells for $25 a pound. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Also it took me 30 seconds to remove them so at that rate how long would it take me to get a pound.
