All I will tell Folks, comin' from a mining family n' all, is that the world annual production of Silver is about 900 million ounces per year, yet we consume somewhere in the range of 1.3 billion ounces per year, for example to solder electronic circuitry and copper water pipes.

WHAT DOES THAT TELL YA?

(Yep, we're melting coins, spoons, forks & candle holders to make laptops, cellphones & TVs.)

Then, most Folks don't know SILVER is the most conductive metal out there. How do you test Silver? You put the coin on the counter, put a piece of ice on it, and if that ice don't IMMEDIATELY start melting and making a puddle of water, it ain't Silver.

So we probably need Silver for all this Advanced Technology stuff that's coming.

Just sayin'...

I love my Silver, he's such a good boy.
