Silver is a metal resource added by IC², but not generated as ore. Absent any other mods that generate it, silver is only acquired by processing Gold Ore.
Forms[edit]
These forms of silver are seen during ore processing (the first two only if silver ore is generated):
If silver ore is not generated, silver dust is acquired (in tiny piles) by running Crushed Gold Ore or Purified Crushed Gold Ore through a Thermal Centrifuge.
Silver is not used in metal shaping. Currently[2.6.133] its only non-dust form is as Silver Ingot when smelted (which has no use, really).
Uses[edit]
Silver has a single use, albeit an extremely important one: crafting Glass Fibre Cables.
- In addition to carrying power tier 5 voltage), these are used to craft the Teleporter, which is used to craft the Advanced Miner and Replicator.
Each Gold Ore you process will only get you 2x Tiny Pile of Silver Dust, so 9 ore will get you enough for 2x Silver Dust. Treasure your gold!
