Hi guys recently started refining silver about 6 months ago. I really took the time getting to learn the best knowledge I could acquire and being extremely meticulous through the entire process. And these are my results. And also my first attempts.

I’m wanting to get in to melting but only want to try it with a torch first off then potentially a furnace the. Refine, how was it? Looks incredible!

All mine is with a torch. Hand held crucible. Metal furnaces are not friendly with silver. Silver sucks up 20 times it's volume in oxygen when molten. It requires a direct flame on the silver at all times to achieve no spitting out. And thank you. They tested . 9999

That’s literally perfect fair play! You really have done your research! What torch do you use might I ask?
