How much ore do you need to produce 1 tonne of silver?

@svankensen That not even considering the unknown effects of cyanometallic compunds, or the solid wastes, wich are highly alkaline. Still, im glad you use vat leaching, its much cleaner than heap leaching, but really, the ridiculous prices that silver is reaching allow for much cleaner production, cyanide leaching has been around for decades and has a constant history of industrial accidents.

@edrsilver It also emmits large volumes of CNH (wich is pretty hard to breakdown) into the atmosphere, its effects unknown. Also, that "breakdown" still precipitates heavy metals into the bottom of the tailings pond, and they have a documented tendency to infiltrate to underground waters. Another important fact is that after decades, the water still has over 10 mg/lt of cyanide ion, while standards for waste waters have a maximum of 2mg/lt for human consumption, and 0.05 for water ecosystems

Seems like a lot of work for 1000 oz. Do not put silver in your mouth lol chemicals used to process cyanide,lead who knows what else. Does your metal get used in Maple Leafs with 9999 pure?

@pdxeddie1111 Most of the cyanide is recovered through a process then reused. Some cyanide is present in the tailings pond. Most people don't know that once cyanide hits oxygen and sunlight it breaks down.
