Bookmarked. I'd consider trying to send in my own application. This is useful! Well done!

I'd say, in prospecting for silver nitric is also useful.
After dissolution of the silver-mineral, A little saltwater is added and the formation of silverchloride is a tell tale sign. I've done so a few times before the law came into play 2014-ish?

Just keep in mind that lead and mercury also dissolve in nitric, and they will also both create white precipitates when chlorides are added.

Thanks for the reminder, Dave.

Lead occurs only in trace amounts around here. Mercury not at all.
I've specialized in my local area for prospecting.

There's an occasional piece of galena, but the reaction with the nitric seems slower compared to the silver-minerals. Besides, they're easy to tell apart either way. The galena isn't black like the silver-minerals I have here.
 
Now I'm intrigued, where in Sweden do we have silver minerals but no galena?

Southern part of the TIB. Not going into more detail since I'd like to explore this further myself.

Fire assay of a 2 Kg "grab sample" of alluvium show 52 PPM Ag and 3 PPM Au.
