You can find Germanium inside transistors. Note. Most transistors today are made from Silicon. In order to find a Germanium transistor you can read the type no. off the device, then look in a data book. Alternatively, if you have the equipment, measure Vcesat for the device. Silicon devices show about 1.2 V. When you find one at about 0.6 V you've got your Germanium.
