First off a cell phone has very little gold, it will take 100's of phones to help your wallet. But if you must, just take it out and then take it to be smelted.

Be careful. Cell phones have trace amounts of Mercury. If you try to melt and separate you could inhale some bad stuff.

I knew that cell phones cause cancer and tumors in the brain but I thought it was caused from the radiation not from the mercury in it I didn't even know cell phones have mercury in it so thank you so much
