Why should I recycle my mobile phone?

The latest ELI, published today, is the last of our Minerals series - 'Be a mineral expert 4 - Recycle your mobile phone'. This is an activity based on an information sheet, which prompts pupils to think about the materials and energy which go into the manufacture and use of a mobile phone, and why they should consider carefully what happens to the phone when its useful life is over.
