5 gram Bar Silver Argor - Heraeus
"Silver is also obtained by electrolytic purification of copper or by using the Parkes method to separate it from lead ores containing silver admixtures. High-quality pure silver contains at least 99.9% of the metal, and purities above 99.999% are also available. In 2010, Mexico, with a production of 128.6 million ounces, was the largest producer of silver in the world, (15% of world annual production). It is followed by Peru and China. The largest producer of silver in Europe is Poland. Thanks to the Lower Silesian copper and silver deposits exploited by KGHM Polska Miedź, around 1 300 tonnes of refined silver are produced annually. In 2010 KGHM Polska Miedź was the third-largest producer of silver in the world, after the Australian company BHP Billiton and Fresnillo plc. Annual silver output at KGHM Polska Miedź amounted to 37.2 million ounces, representing around 4.5% of global production of this metal. In 2011, KGHM ranked first globally in silver production (40.5 million ounces) ahead of BHP Billiton (38.9 million) and Fresnillo (37.9 million). Since 2010, reduced production can be observed at many legacy mines due to the depletion of readily available deposits." Bars are one of the many investment options available, and are also one of the oldest ways of investing capital. In Arab countries, India and Singapore, bars are popular with the weight expressed in the traditional unit of 1 tola, standardised as 5/8 troy ounce. In Arab countries, bars with a weight of 1 dinar, standardised as 1/7th of a troy ounce, are also found.All the bars we sell are certified by the LBMA. "The LBMA sets and oversees compliance with the London Bullion Market's quality and safety requirements. Mints that meet these are placed on the regularly updated Good Delivery List. Purchasing a bar produced by such a mint ensures that it can be resold anywhere in the world where investment bars are traded. On the other hand, the price received will be the highest possible, i.e. it will be higher than the price of bars produced by mints that have not received LBMA accreditation." Do you need help?
