SOURCE: http://surepure.com I think it will be easy to extract the palladium using a chemical solution (acid) that will destroy the material the strip is made from but not the palladium - have a look at http://www.chemweb.com - maybe you can start a Palladium Recycling Kit business. See http://www.goldkit.com Also a great source with info on palladium is the North American Palladium Company - http://www.napalladium.ca Regards, Lourens Human == Get new ringtones and logos for your cellphone from Ananzi!
