Why Silver Is Called the Industrial Metal
Highly conductive and reflective, silver is a manufacturing essential, with over 50% of global supply consumed by various industrial sectors.
Silver is the most conductive and reflective element on Earth, making it essential for modern industry. Unlike gold, which is mostly stored in vaults, over 50% of silver is consumed in manufacturing. From mirrors to electrical switches, its unique chemical properties make it irreplaceable.
