What materials makeup a Nokia phone in detail

Hey guys,
I'm looking for a detailed explaination of what parts of cellphones are made up of what materials. I have a general bar graph from Nokia explaining which percentage of a cell phone is made up of what. BUT I need to know exacally which parts are what materials. Anyone help me with this one.

First of all, is this for a college paper etc or "just for fun"? The spare
parts (LCD, keypad spares people will be the best to help you I believe)

I'm not sure what you're expecting. Nokia consider that even listing
the parts of their phone would be giving away a commercial secret. I
mean you can't expect them to give their competitors a lesson on
exactly how you make up a low-power battery-management system, can
you ? Why should they supply this sort of information to you ?

Please tell me if it does weird things.

I'm not looking for the design or electronic diagrams. I'm looking for raw materials diagram. I have about 400 lbs of electronic scrap exclusivly from cell phones. I am interested in recovering the precious metals from it. I have been given offers from people interested in buying my scrap, but after some intial research I find that these offeres are, for less of a better term, a joke. I have learn of several recycling tequniqes to recover the silver, gold and platinum from these phone but in order to maximize my cost/profit I'd like to minimize the non-recyclible waste.
