The silicon kind that is not the potato kind.

I've got a large quantity of these (roughly a filing cabinet full of the things). Almost certainly no use for them now as there's a lot of obsolete stuff in there (stuff for telexes and obsolete VT220 terminals for example) and certainly not worth my time to sort out the usable from the unusable. So what can I do with all this? Is there a proper way to recycle this lot?

Computer related scrap(ic's etc) used to be highly sort after, and there were plenty of buyers , I am not sure what the situation is now , but with gold at a currently high price, I think it might be worth a google.

Your local authority should be able to advise.

A goldmine maybe, but a fortune is unlikely.

Cheers for the link.
