Accurate Recycling, We buy what scrap yards don't | Rare-Earth, Refractory & Precious - Page 2

the non valuable metal is a supposed to be a variation of permalloy made of iron, nickel, and molybdenim used to block or limit magnetic fields

I sent a hard drive magnet to you also. I was happy to do this so you could see what we were talking about. I hoped to see you roll onto this thread with a full analysis of the neodymium magnet with percentage of neodymium/iron/boron/nickel content plus an analysis of the backing plate which I've heard called permalloy and Mu metal. I really would appreciate it if you could let us know if you found this information.

Thank you

Update:

I have given a variety of samples to our engineers and they are very confident that Neodymium Magnet recycling will become a reality within the next few months.

Our technology can refine the Neodymium and Nickel content with ease, the only problem we're having is the Boron content. Boron doesn't agree with our refining process and our chemists and metallurgists are working on a method to chemically remove the Boron.

We have a few wizards working for us and I have the utmost confidence in their abilities. Just please be patient and I will definitely let all of you know when we are ready.

Thank you for the update. With no one else that I know of reclaiming the metal out of these, you will be able to acquire a lot of material to work with.

so what they really mean to say is that this is a scrap yard for now and that sometime in the future you will be able to claim what your first post said but for right now you are not interested in most things members on this forum need an outlet to sell to but maybe sometime just maybe you will be.

No, we are not a scrap yard.

Accurate Recycling sets itself apart from scrap yards by not allowing walk-in material and by focusing only on rare-earth, refractory and precious metals. We will never buy things like copper wire, radiators, extruded aluminum, etc. but we will buy tungsten powder & sludge, burnt molybdenum scraps, silver contaminated turnings, and soon, Neodymium Magnets and hopefully again, printed circuit boards.

Our metallurgists and chemists work hard to find the right balance of chemicals all while keeping it cost-effective to us and thus every unique material we receive will require different ratio's of chemicals, acids and go through different processes. In the example of Neodymium Magnets we need to figure out how to remove the boron and iron content while keeping the use of our acids and raw material to a minimum. Once we overcome that hurdle the Neodymium and Nickel content is a simple electroplating process.

We are working hard and have invested 10's of thousands of dollars in research for neodymium magnets alone. We have the technology, we have the people, we just need a little more time. I am sure we will be an extremely valuable asset to this community very, very soon.

But to answer your reply, yes we are interested in the materials this community can offer. But no, we can not accept it until we have perfected the process. I will keep you all informed as we further progress in our research.

Do you need more material to play with? I'm sure a few of us would be happy to send more samples if it will get us closer to having a buyer

Smart people get a high profile address, even if it's only a mail drop at your lawyers place of business - like wall street.

Just realized that our address was listed as "4710 South 150 W" and not "4710 South 150 West St" this makes a MAJOR difference here in Utah.

I've edited it to the appropriate address and you can clearly see we're not a residential address. Sorry for the confusion.

Recycled 800 lbs of material with john at accurate. Very easy to deal with, nice guy, and knowledgable on materials. He arranged all the shippping and sent a semi over. Looking forward to doing more busines with this company since i have stuff that is hard to find a buyer for. sent me a check in the mail in a very timely manner.

Material was sort of a Powder that contained a Whole Host of metals.

the easiest way .its what i do .is grab both ends of the steel with vice grips .than bend .once you bend it the neodyme pulls of real easy

Sent in another load this week to Accurate. Great people to do business with and a great recycler for material some Scrap yards won't even take or don't know how to price.
