I'm pretty new to this as well, but the one tool you must have is a magnet. If the magnet sticks to the metal it goes in the shread pile. Granted you maybe able to break a ferrous piece off of a non-ferrous piece to maximize your return. If it looks like it is different metals on the piece just try your magnet on the different pieces. From the veterans if I said anything wrong please let me know.
