'''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 {{Gin|Gold Ore}}.


Silver is mainly obtained as a by-product when processing [[Gold]] Ore inside the [[Thermal Centrifuge]]. Currently, the only use for Silver is it's dust form in the recipe for [[Glass Fibre Cable]]. Whilst there is a Crushed Ore and Purified Crushed Ore form of Silver, they are unobtainable without the use of another mod that adds a Silver Ore, since IC2 does not have a Silver Ore.

These forms of silver are seen during '''[[ore processing]]''' (the first two only if silver ore is generated):
* {{Gin|Crushed Silver Ore}}
* {{Gin|Purified Crushed Silver Ore}}
* {{Gin|Silver Dust}}
* {{Gin|Tiny Pile of Silver Dust}}
If silver ore is not generated, silver dust is acquired (in tiny piles) by running {{Gin|Crushed Gold Ore}} or {{Gin|Purified Crushed Gold Ore}} through a {{Gin|Thermal Centrifuge}}.

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 Grid Gold Ore.png 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 Grid Crushed Gold Ore.png Crushed Gold Ore or Grid Purified Crushed Gold Ore.png Purified Crushed Gold Ore through a Grid Thermal Centrifuge.png Thermal Centrifuge.

Silver is not used in metal shaping. Currently[2.8.75] its only non-dust forms are Grid Silver Ingot.png Silver Ingot and Grid Silver Block.png Silver Block, neither of which are used by IC² (yet).

Uses[edit]

Silver has a single use, albeit an extremely important one: crafting Grid Glass Fibre Cable.png Glass Fibre Cables.

Each Grid Gold Ore.png Gold Ore you process will only get you 2x Grid Tiny Pile of Silver Dust.png Tiny Pile of Silver Dust, so 9 ore will get you enough for 2x Grid Silver Dust.png Silver Dust. Treasure your gold!

Crafting[edit]

Basic crafting is the same for (almost) every metal. Silver is one of the odd ones out, with nothing but dust to smelt (which does you little good, unless you're making blocks for storage or decoration I suppose).
