I haven't done much in way of research on the gold in cartridges. There is no clear answer to exactly what amount of gold is on the mylar or the chips. Lately I have been taking them off of the useless cartridges I have and will save up until I get enough of them. It will take some time to get a fair amount in terms of weight since the weight of those are near nothing. It would be neat to know exactly how much gold is in those. I sell many of the inkjets for a lot more than the gold is worth I am sure, but like I said, if the cartridge holds no value in terms of selling then why not take that mylar or chip off? As far as the ink is concerned, I have no clue what they do to the old ink. I guess it would make sense to try and salvage as much as possible since ink is priced as if liquid gold, and toner is priced as if gold dust.
