The process of removing gold from the fingers of connectors is an easy but specialized one. By easy, I mean physically easy and the equipment is not hard to build or buy.
The hard part is the regulations by the EPA which must be followed and they mostly have to do with the disposal of depleted chemicals used. Also, remelting the gold into useable ingots and assaying it requires you to become a registered gold refinery.
Physically, not hard. Practially, difficult. And no, I am not going to explain the process to anyone here. It's not for casual interest. In fact, it's one of the few things you can't really ferret out on Google. Go ahead. Try it. You'll get some good guesses but you won't find the process. I do know of one place to find it. In a university level chemistry course.

It's all about that moment when metal that hasn't seen the light of day for generations frees itself from the soil and presents itself to me.
