Hi,

I hope this is right time to get in to copper business since china starts consumption, processing and manufacture copper. Meanwhile some b2b website will help you to obtain contacting with copper dealers to know more about the market trends and their rates.

As you might know, many burglars are known for stealing copper pipes from very old houses. Yes, that contains a much higher percentage of copper inside, almost always entirely pure.

cables are probably the best source. Some roofs are lined with copper, but it is unlikely anyone will give you their roof for nothing!

I guess you are finding that the pay is low per hour from stripping all the cable - thats the way life works, easy work pays poorly ;)

copper roofing, electric motors, alternators, pipes, copper saucepans... can't think of anything else that wouldn't require chemical processes.

most everything valuable ends up at recycle yards. if it were easy to go out and make a killin doin what u say , we'd all be doin it.
