    How and where to get best price for low background radiation lead?

    I recently acquired 2199 pounds of low background radiation from some old lab equipment. I was told by two of the lab workers that I would be stupid to sell this locally as it is rare and worth far more than the going scrap yard prices. There is supposed to be a demand for it in testing equipment. Any suggestions? I scrap for a living, but have never had anything like this before and need the best price available. Thank you!

    I have scrapped metals for years, but something tells me that this shouldn't be thrown in among the junk batteries and such. I called one company that manufactures testing equipment for labs. I could hear in her voice that she was VERY interested, but was trying not to show it. I am not (overly) greedy, but don't want to sell something for so many cents per pound when it may be worth dollars per pound. i do not have to get top dollar, but I also don't want to do something stupid.
