    You know, I would just sell them as-is on ebay. You can torch them off, outside, but there are precautions to take...research cadmium. Possibly use a sharp chisel as well. There are threads here on the subject, and also over on the GRF on this type of material.

    Those are heavy duty relay or contactor contacts.
    You should be able to knock the contacts off with a vise and a chisel.
    I'm sure you can sell the contacts on ebay.
    The copper would then sell fior #2 copper (Because of the solder left on it) #1 if it is clean
    If you only have a few, just throw them in with your #2 copper
    If you have a LOT, consider breaking them down
