silver (ˈsɪlvə) n 1. (Elements & Compounds) a. a very ductile malleable brilliant greyish-white element having the highest electrical and thermal conductivity of any metal. It occurs free and in argentite and other ores: used in jewellery, tableware, coinage, electrical contacts, ...
Silver With the recent introduction of various calcium/tin/silver alloys for use in automotive batteries, silver levels are rapidly increasing in recycled lead streams throughout the world. Although silver-containing lead alloys have been made for many years, their overall tonnage was small and had...
The proportion of silver in these alloys is stated in terms of fineness, which means parts of silver per thousand of the alloy. Sterling silver contains 92.5 percent of silver and 7.5 percent of another metal, usually copper; i.e., it has a fineness of 925. Jewelry silver is an alloy ...

Reacts with sulfur compounds to form black sulfides. Silver is found in ores called argentite (AgS), light ruby silver (Ag3AsS3), dark ruby silver (Ag3SbS3) and brittle silver. Used in alloys for jewellery and in other compounds for photography. It is also a good conductor, but ...
Silver processing, preparation of the ore for use in various products. Silver has long been valued for its white metallic lustre, its ability to be readily worked, and its resistance to the corrosive effects of moisture and oxygen. The lustre of the pure
Silver (symbol Ag) is one of the basic elements present in the earth's crust. Silver is rare, but occurs naturally in the environment as a soft, “silver”-colored metal or as a white powdery compound (silver nitrate). Metallic silver and silver alloys are used to make jewelry, eating ...
In addition, many motion picture makers still prefer silver-halide film over digital because of its low cost, excellent resolution, and true color properties. Batteries Many rechargeable and disposable batteries are manufactured with silver alloys as the cathode or negative (-) side. ...
