Price for Alloy Recycling

[boydage]

I was told today the Alloy chips I keep to resell because I dont want them to end up in a hole in the ground were worth $0.40kg and any other alloy was $1.40kg.

I was surprised it wasnt the other way around. In fact, I was really surprised there was a difference at all?

What kind of "alloy" is it? That term covers a lot of ground.

Oh. Yeh cool. They didnt care here in nz.

My chips are 6061 and 5083.

Did you keep them separate, or was the low price for mixed chips?

I had 831 lbs of 6061 and 7075 chip, in 8 barrels with a tare of 40 lbs per barrel.
They rang me up as .25c a pound for "aluminum turnings" (2020)

I separated the mix and brought pure 7075 and they rang me up for .46c a pound (2021)
