Is there an easy way to tell pewter from Zinc?
My scrap yard has always told me to put the Zinc & Pewter items in with my Cast Aluminum .
but
With the Zinc price around 15 cents higher than the Au ,I reckon I should separate them.
Also how can I tell Zinc From Pewter or is it Basically the same .
Thanks for any advice..
One more thing will most scrap yards with a Shredder Except Bicycles with the rubber tires still
on them?.
Thanks again
