Have been using the Paul O Abbe ball mill to make sea glass instead of crushing the ic chips. So far the only refining I do is melt irony aluminum into ingots (watch out for magnesium air drills). I have been scrapping forklifts, electric motors, motor starters, welders, and transformers for several years now and just started removing the contacts from the backing again. I do this under a vented lab fume hood.

Acids and cyanide talk will put everyone on this forum into a frenzy, the gold forum is a separate entity. Once you join I suggest you go to the Books section and download Hoke's Refining Precious Metals Wastes. Read the book several times to learn the techniques and language used on the forum.

Have fun and be safe, https://www.goldrefiningforum.com/

Of all the many youtube posters on precious metals you can trust Sreetips for accuracey,

Etack or noblemetalworks may be able to refer you to a buyer

your contacts should bend if they are An Alloy.

If they are WAg they will not bend but break.
