Due to its toxicity, it can be hard to get a pure source of lead. Because of its rarity, lead fetches a good price when sold for scrap. You can find lead in old car batteries and pipes in your basement. Antique lamp fixtures and children’s toys may also have some lead.
You may find lead mixed with metals such as brass and copper. But, if you find a pure source of lead, ensure you take precautions while handling it so as not to contaminate your surroundings with toxic pieces. Besides making money, removing lead sources from your home will keep you safe from health complications such as kidney, brain, and nerve system damage
