Minerals can be extracted from recycled electronics.
Explanation: e-waste contains valuable materials (gold, silver, copper, palladium, some rare earths) that can be recovered through specialized recycling processes. The other statements are false: e-waste recycling uses different, specialized methods than ordinary plastic/metal recycling; the global safe recycling rate is much lower than 60%; and exporting e-waste often leads to unsafe handling and is not a safe recycling practice.
