      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Isolating Silver from Galena, the easy way

3 posts in this topic

Given that galena DOES contain silver-even if it's miniscule amounts-I say we should make it possible to gather silver from it again-quite simply, in a forge.

How?

Melt off the lead.

Lead melts at 621f. Silver melts at 1700+. Melt off the Galena, get 1-5 Silver Flecks. Ore Flecks stack to 100, and melt like larger ore does.

I know, I know. But I want something to do with all the goddamn galena I run into.

Galena it is not a lead itself, it is PbS and must be heated enough to perform pyrolysis and reduction to lead. And silver is well solvable in melted lead, decreasing temperature of lead-silver alloy won't extract silver (in real life, zinc is used for silver extraction from lead).

In TFC, there is Udary mod for silver from galena extraction, which is very useful also in other ways .

Bah we should have more useless stuff, in the way to have less need for giving uses to useless items.
