Circuit boards are "reclaimed" if you actually turn them in to be "un-manufactured."
The bad part is that there are so few places to turn them in for that purpose. The university here will accept computers, electronics, cell phoned, etc. They go to an "un-manufacturing" facility where the metals and plastics are reclaimed.
Many manufacturers are actually MAKING things so that they can be un-manufactured. It's now required in Japan and will be soon in Europe. Hopefully, it will continue in this direction.
