copper powder

[whitesid]

has anyone sold copper powder? i am going to have a lot of it and was wondering what it would be worth? im guessing that it would be one of the worst grades of copper due to the annoyance of handling it.

Did a quick search on Google "copper powder". It depends on the copper isotope type Cu 63, Cu65. It depends on the purity, preferably like silver .999, etc. It can be sold by the gram and seems to be worth some serious money.

where would you sell something like that at ??

Would it be used for metal spraying?
or a paint additive?
fine castings?

How much you gonna get?


...It's like all the other (industrial) metals... value is based on demand, and supply.
Factory orders are still fading.

Rio tinto, Kennecott, etc, still cutting back production and laying off many workers.

I think we're all getting deeply involved in a waiting game.

How long can YOU hold out?

i have no clue what its used for, i have about an ounce so far of it. and i have no limit on time im gonna hold out until the price goes back up.

it's probably worth more because it's easier to melt down and mix with other metals

this is true but it will oxidize more before it melts.
