Minerals can be extracted from recycled electronics.
Explanation: E-waste contains valuable metals (e.g., gold, copper, silver, palladium, and rare earth elements) that can be recovered. The other statements are false: exporting e-waste is often unsafe/illegal, global safe recycling rates are much lower than 60%, and e-waste recycling uses specialized processes different from typical plastic/metal recycling.
