What's the silver content in the nuggets? Are they melt nuggets?
 

I frequently use silver nuggets for fishing sinkers. The water doesn't get polluted. And, the added sparkle increases my catch numbers. Not surprising, the rivers are full of them.

I would like to add this link. It shows some good pics of naturally occuring silver from 4 different locales. http://www.meteorlab.com/METEORLAB2001dev/platgroupmetals.htm

I remember your posting in What Is It. Have you confirmed it yet with a silver test solution? Would be great if it turns out to be silver. Your pic is blurry but I have a feeling its either melted aluminum or lead alloy or you found some of Cappys sinkers. :wink:

WTF is your deal? Are you capable of forming sentences? Every single post you make is a single word or 90% of the time a smily. Do you even read the threads you post in or do you just randomly post smilies in threads?

Been a while since I talked to you on the phone, but I finally found the source of Tobe Inmons silver bullets North of Dover. Arkansas Tech geology confirmed my finds a couple weeks ago. Give me a holler and I'll take you up there. Ron
