Cell phones and other electronic devices contain a mineral called Col-Tan (columbite-tantalite) mined from African habitats where gorillas and chimpanzees live. When coltan is destructively mined, it causies harm to these habitats and the animals and plants that call them home. Plus, it takes a ton of energy and resources to create an electronic device. By reclaiming the precious metals in gadgets, we can reduce stress on the environment and its inhabitants and deter toxic waste from our landfills.
