Status update: |
- I was founded in 1623.
- I am mostly found in silverware and jewelery.
- I am a precious metal mined and refined before being sold.
|
Overview: |
Although I may look shiny, smooth, and tough, I really am a softy. I am a transition metal and the best conductor of heat and electricity. I rarely react with other elements, but I turn brown and tarnish when I'm in contact with hydrogen sulfide. That's why I broke up with her. Don't worry- I'm not dangerous. You might use me everyday

The above photo is unrefined silver. This is a photo of refined silver.
You'd find this when you mine it underground.

Why do you tarnish?

No one would appreciate silver without its smoothness. Without me, you would be nothing.
