Why "black market"? Surely any intelligence agency worth their salt has a public, open, completely legal program where you can just contact them and offer what you have, no? They'd be stupid not to.

There are hundreds, if not thousands, of companies like that. And as an individual researcher, you can either join such a company, or freelance for one. It's indeed not trivial, but I imagine that anyone with enough experience in the business would know how to pull it off.
