Silver is a soft, white, natural material, just like gold it belongs to the group of precious metals.
Silver does not rust what makes it a durable. Secondly silver is soft witch makes it easy to manipulate.

In contrast with gold, silver is seldom found in a 100% natural form, normaly silver is found in combination with non-precious metals such as copper and lead. This mixture is manipulated to extract the silver from the other metals.

Silver is escavated from mines in Canada, The United States, South America and Australia.

Silver is naturaly too soft to mend into juwellery or other objects. The wear and tear would be too great and objects will be unusable. That is why silver is molten with other metals, like copper, a alloy is created, the amount of silver that has been put in the alloy makes up the content in parts of a 1000.
