I am fairly new to the scrapping world. In my earlier teardowns I made the mistake of removing gold fingers from boards. I do have appx a pound of trimmed fingers and gold contact points (see pic) fromboards that are not RAM or finger boards. Are these possibly a lower grade of gold finger and is there any pricing for this scrap?

If you have a bunch, probably keep them together and definitely email Chris, let him know you have a mix of gold finger like material that didn't all come off gold finger cards. Make sure to send pictures that accurately represent the mix and how much you have. He may advise to put it with another grade or to keep separate so they can test it on site.
