A: Silver refining is basically the recovery or recycling of silver from items that contain this precious metal. Items that are refined for their silver content include:
For industrial and manufacturing items such as silver flake from photo film, silver from x-ray film and scrap silver sludge are recovered. The process is more involved where the refiner first has to burn the film and then put the ashes into the acid base.
On the Web you may find methods for home silver refining, I would not recommend this without having an experienced refiner handy. Because you are working with acid, there is a risk in the home, especially if you are trying to collect ash which requires very high heat conducted in a furnace.
Not in its raw state, but can be once refined.
Most silver is obtained from refining other metals. It's extracted through a flotation process. Then the silver itself is refined through smelting.
Silver is refined by a process involving smelting in a furnace with lead oxide, fluxes, and a reducing agent to produce a purer alloy of silver and gold called dore. An oxidized lead residue melts away in the process.
Refined
Not a whole lot. Nickel silver contains no silver but only contains base metals, so if you are scrapping a lot of it (several pounds) it may contain scrap value, though it would cost quite a bit to have it refined.
Silver scrap is already refined silver.
You have to find a sparkling silver ore and then you have to get it refined Maria will do that for you and then you have to have the refined ore and the rod in your rucksack and then go to the blacksmith and he will upgrade it for you.

Refined and polished, it is indistinguishable from silver, at least upon casual inspection.
Australian Zinc, Lead and Silver exports are worth $5 billion each year. Most of Australian silver is sent to Japan. Some is exported to the UK as lead bullion where it is extracted and refined.

Meriden B Company was a manufacturer that made silverware out of "black silver" the kind of silver that was economical doing the time, it still had the flare of expensive silver settings and today the silver alone is of high value, since refined silver was getting high in value and the price of refined silver was costly at the time, Meriden B Company started offering silver that was not "refined" before it was marked, it was before "nickle silver" so the silver is still 100 percent! The product itself will appear black before you polish it, which should be left in that state if you want to sell it. All Meriden B Company is over 100 years old and have a historical value, family's that can trace back 100 year will know about the Meriden B Company product. Meriden B Company went out of business after becoming well known for these kinds of products.
refined refined
Very little. Most silver is mined in deep shafts below the surface and refined in smelters which do not have chemical residues. The tailings can be slightly radioactive, but overall low environmental impact
Gold is timeless, but it can be tacky if you are not familiar with the person. Silver is always a bit more refined in terms of apprearance. In terms of value a true gold necklace will cost you much more.
