Is this silver?

[TreasureJeff77]

I have found a lot of this silver looking nuggets, however it almost looks as if some of it is mixed in with silica sand? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Looks like mica.

In the wild silver is black.

Well that's no fun! Thanks for looking. As for silver being black in the wild makes me wonder about my finding the other day which is solid and silver? (not black) maybe it's gold! Lol

Moroccan Silver from the looks of goggle, most the chunks were big like the photo until I crushed them in efforts to remove the ore. Thanks for looking and the link Wildman!

So would you attempt to do anything with it?
