NOTE: After receiving many phone calls from members of this site I would like to let you all know that we do *not* buy general scrap metals or e-Scrap. I apologize for the confusion.

Sure would be nice to see a list of some prices you offer. I have a lot of nickel plated hard drive magnets/back plates that are to small to sell on ebay about 60-80lbs.

catalytic converter honeycomb? i have about 600 pounds of extracted ceramic honeycomb. And about 100 pounds of foil out of foil converters.

awesome you want monitors and will pay for the shipping where do I sign up and how much are you paying?

yeah some more info would be nice

I want to know 2!!!! hell I can easily have you a few truck loads of monitors!

I googled the company name and address, scrolled down until a link that seemed to be their website, it says there the page has been temporarily disabled?

I just talked to the sec/bookeeper at this company if what they say in their ad here is factual they will be a great new addition to the forum.

I was curious about the reactions of lack there of to me and other members of the forum. here is what I surmise from my phone conversation.

the scrap forum is a new approach for them and they may not have been prepared for the reaction from a forum 11,000+ strong and were caught off guard.

I left a phone # and will wait for a response hope it is quick and a good one for the benefit of us all.

JosephLeo spoke with your senior partner this afternoon, interesting chap. looking forward to doing business with you gents over at Accurate Recycling Inc. real soon.

The Internet is a wonderful tool JosephLeo it has much in common with telemarketers working from sweat rooms taking orders and credit card numbers for goods they'll never lay hands on.

In your case you have made claim to your company being a refiner which it is not according to a man I regard as an authority on refining precious metals, he actually owns a refinery. Say’s your Company is merely a Broker, this may work well for some members but is contradictory to what in in your opening claim in this thread and that of what your father indicated to me over the telephone.

My point being that if you fib once will you fib twice, from what I have learned I will not be doing business with your firm.

You see those of us that plan of having our catalytic converters toll refined expect to be at the refinery in person or have a representative present at the refinery to protect our interests.

Operating a few copper parting cells does not qualify you as a refiner.

No doubt that Accurate Recycling is a well connected company, I'm sure that they're services will benefit some of our forum members.

i
m still waiting for a return phone call from this co. my value stock in this co is dropping by the hour, but am still hopeful. I don't care that they are not a refiner, I do care that they infered they were strike one, im still looking for a place to sell my rare metal.

Often i will use google street view to check out the validity of someone posing on the Internet. Nine times out of ten the guy lives in an apartment complex.

Smart people get a high profile address, even if it's only a mail drop at your lawyers place of business - like wall street.

hi,what is the price on hardrive magnets,ed.

Just a minor update, our eScrap program has been removed and dismantled. There is far too much competition in the market and we're sticking to our primary markets instead.

what about the scrap we havent found a buyer for yet, like the hard drive magnets?

I got a sample of these magnets from one of the members here on the forum and these are just something we currently can not do. If I were to actually process them I would have to melt them to get the magnetic material separated from the non-valuable metal and then dissect them in our refining equipment. So as of right now they're not at all valuable to us until we figure out the proper way to recycle these in an eco and energy friendly manner.

I think I sent them to you:) The magnetic material actualy comes off real easy with the wack of a chisel. Is there any value in the rest of the metal that is nickel plated?

Isw the whole bracket nickel plated or just the magnet?

I'm not sure if I thanked you for the sample, so again thanks.

Honestly, I didn't think of giving them a whack with a chisel and hammer. I had my guys bust a couple and it works like a charm.

I might reconsider our position on these magnets since they seem easy enough to process even in bulk lots of 1000s of pounds.

I'll keep you guys informed.

the non valuable metal is a supposed to be a variation of permalloy made of iron, nickel, and molybdenim used to block or limit magnetic fields

I sent a hard drive magnet to you also. I was happy to do this so you could see what we were talking about. I hoped to see you roll onto this thread with a full analysis of the neodymium magnet with percentage of neodymium/iron/boron/nickel content plus an analysis of the backing plate which I've heard called permalloy and Mu metal. I really would appreciate it if you could let us know if you found this information.

Thank you

I dont know. Thats why I sent him a sample was hopipng to get us a magnet buyer :)

Update:

I have given a variety of samples to our engineers and they are very confident that Neodymium Magnet recycling will become a reality within the next few months.

Our technology can refine the Neodymium and Nickel content with ease, the only problem we're having is the Boron content. Boron doesn't agree with our refining process and our chemists and metallurgists are working on a method to chemically remove the Boron.

We have a few wizards working for us and I have the utmost confidence in their abilities. Just please be patient and I will definitely let all of you know when we are ready.

Thank you for the update. With no one else that I know of reclaiming the metal out of these, you will be able to acquire a lot of material to work with.

so what they really mean to say is that this is a scrap yard for now and that sometime in the future you will be able to claim what your first post said but for right now you are not interested in most things members on this forum need an outlet to sell to but maybe sometime just maybe you will be.

No, we are not a scrap yard.

Accurate Recycling sets itself apart from scrap yards by not allowing walk-in material and by focusing only on rare-earth, refractory and precious metals. We will never buy things like copper wire, radiators, extruded aluminum, etc. but we will buy tungsten powder & sludge, burnt molybdenum scraps, silver contaminated turnings, and soon, Neodymium Magnets and hopefully again, printed circuit boards.

Our metallurgists and chemists work hard to find the right balance of chemicals all while keeping it cost-effective to us and thus every unique material we receive will require different ratio's of chemicals, acids and go through different processes. In the example of Neodymium Magnets we need to figure out how to remove the boron and iron content while keeping the use of our acids and raw material to a minimum. Once we overcome that hurdle the Neodymium and Nickel content is a simple electroplating process.

We are working hard and have invested 10's of thousands of dollars in research for neodymium magnets alone. We have the technology, we have the people, we just need a little more time. I am sure we will be an extremely valuable asset to this community very, very soon.

But to answer your reply, yes we are interested in the materials this community can offer. But no, we can not accept it until we have perfected the process. I will keep you all informed as we further progress in our research.

Do you need more material to play with? I'm sure a few of us would be happy to send more samples if it will get us closer to having a buyer

Just realized that our address was listed as "4710 South 150 W" and not "4710 South 150 West St" this makes a MAJOR difference here in Utah.

I've edited it to the appropriate address and you can clearly see we're not a residential address. Sorry for the confusion.

Recycled 800 lbs of material with john at accurate. Very easy to deal with, nice guy, and knowledgable on materials. He arranged all the shippping and sent a semi over. Looking forward to doing more busines with this company since i have stuff that is hard to find a buyer for. sent me a check in the mail in a very timely manner.

do u mind to share what type of material it was.....If not its kewl I am just not very knowledgeable on this type of recycling

Material was sort of a Powder that contained a Whole Host of metals.

the easiest way .its what i do .is grab both ends of the steel with vice grips .than bend .once you bend it the neodyme pulls of real easy

Hey Joseph Leo, Have you tried the Magnesium process refining? Molten magnesium leeches the neodymium from the HDD magnets by amalgamation. The the "alloy" is refined further either chemically or it is sold as is (At about 38% neodymium) directly to refiners. This is probably the only way you can seperate out the neodymium from the iron and boron. If you attempt to do this chemically it would be cost prohibitive, hope that helps.

Try it with a heat treating oven first, your best bet is to acid wash the material you intend to process (the magnets) and immediately subject it to the molten magnesium, also be careful to use only an electric oven, magnesium can burn. Any way you look at it, you have a huge gap in process cost vs. mine derived materials (about $51/lb last time I looked).

The speed of the process could be increased exponentially by heating the magnets and grinding or chipping, they lose nearly all their magnetism when heated. The iron containing boron can then be resold for casting...it has it's own redeeming properties.

Sent in another load this week to Accurate. Great people to do business with and a great recycler for material some Scrap yards won't even take or don't know how to price.

If anyone is still interested in selling and recycling rare earth neodymium magnets, let me know. We started recently recycling these magnets here in Canada and can buy both small and large amounts.

We can take solid and broken magnets, various types of coating, magnetic or demagnetized.

Let me know if you have any questions.
