SILVER

Argentite: Ag2S ( Silver Glance), Silver occur in lead, zinc, and copper ore deposits, Uses
of Silver

For thousand of years silver has been used for jewelry and all types of decorative items. It is used in silverware. Silver bromide and silver nitrate are used in photography. Silver conducts electricity well, so it is used in electrical products. It is used by dentists in amalgam fillings. It is used in the production of bearings. As untarnished silver is the best reflector of light, it was used in ancient times to make mirrors. Sterling silver, an alloy of other metal (usually copper), was used as currency in the United States.

Silver is found in native form, as an alloy with gold (electrum), chlorargyrite (AgCl) (horn silver), pyrargyrite(Ag3SbS3), Ag3AsS3 Proustite,
