Brass Breakage

Tips:
If it is possible, prepare the brass before it is brought in, which includes removing any foreign material. If cleaning is not possible, separate the clean brass from the unclean. This will maximize your profit and minimize the time spent sorting when it's brought in to be scrapped. If copper is attached to the brass it is still paid at the higher price because copper is used in the production of brass.
