Overview
Silver is both a precious metal and an important industrial material, used in electronics, solar panels and photography as well as in bullion and jewellery.
In East Africa, silver is frequently recovered alongside gold and base metals rather than mined on its own. Buyers should therefore clarify whether they are seeking refined silver or silver contained within another product.
