Scrap value as brought into a scrap yard, is $1400.

The convent that Habitat is converting in Lawrence MA had a huge amount
of cast iron radiators, as well as a huge cast iron boiler. The scrap
dealer is giving them 30-some cents a pound. For cast iron, steel is
WAY less.

If that's the case in Milwaukee, then breaking down this mill to
separate the cast iron could be profitable. Say 90% of it is ci, then
90% x 14000 x .33(say) = $4158.

Thinking that that cast iron price is not normal,

Someone told me that scrap yards pay 100-200 dollars per ton.
