Allen in MT Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Here is a chunk of silver that a friend of mine got from another guy who got it from someone else. It is not known where it origionated from.It has been xrarayed and it weighs 76 ounces.The question is, Is it a natural nugget?? or has it been poured. If it is natural it is a great specimin. There are a couple of drill spots and a piece has been cut for testing and it is good. and show to be 95% silver. I don't remember if he said the chunk weight was 95% silver or if it was 95% pure silverIt was black to begin with and has been cleaned.What say you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rimshot Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I have never seen natural silver in a solid chunk like that before. So I guess this is my first... RimPS-But I can PM you a link to look at several pic's of silver if you request. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I`d definately say natural...... Its a great piece with some nice value to it as well...Thanks for sharing Allen ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nugget Shooter Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Yup the Bridal Chamber mine was so rich they ran a rail track in there to just cut the ore out and drop right into the cart with no smelting needed. Looks like it could be natural to me as well and have seen similar... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennM Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I agree with the consensus that it looks natural. Or it's one helluva great pour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Ron Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I agree it looks natural ... I've seen poured that doesn't have the slight bubble effect ... Cheers, Unc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Au Seeker Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I vote for natural. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
