Let's say incompletely. More silver has been mined, but the data reflects an apparent loss of 90%, per Apmex's info page on the topic. See Row 23.
I haven't looked up what percentage of gold has been lost, so keep that in mind.

Thank you friends!
Now it's easier to understand, it never occured to me that so much silver was lost. Still though, silver carries a much larger premium than gold. And where I live it's also a lot more liquid than silver.

I can understand completely. When I was visiting BG, they have a 20% VAT on silver, but not on sovereign mint coins, so gold Maples were priced extremely competitive with Canadian prices. Silver Maples had a huge premium so they might as well have had a VAT.
Gold was the better deal. Someone in Europe (City of London) hates normies owning silver for some reason.

The lost silver is recoverable now, very profitably and at scale once these plants are built and they will be since the great satans war machine needs all the other rare earths from this process. This is actually a problem for us dudes.

Think of it more like cost per transaction, rather than percent of sale. Say a good sale of ten ounces of silver with a 10% premium (so $50 total) versus half an ounce of gold at 2% premium meaning about $40. It's like he gets paid by the transaction.

Personally I don't think much will come from this, so please don't consider my post to be an endorsement.
It will probably take the US a minimum of 3 years to produce industrial quantities of REEs from mines if they do a Manhattan project. If they bumblefuck at the leisurely speed of the EPA and all the other regulatory agencies, 5-7 years minimum to do see anything.

The chemistry is valid and some of the applications are interesting, such as dealing with the millions of tons of red mud toxic aluminum tailings.
Something that scared me was he admits he's never been in the pilot plant and has no interest in doing so. That's a bit of a red flag.
Grinding up motherboards and consumer electronics for rare earths and precious metals is dodgy at best, something that can be done only on a relatively small scale. This won't solve the REE issue.
The professor suggested that his process won't work very well for rare earth ores unless they are purified first, then his proces can easily separate the different elements.
This tech will have no measurable impact on precious metals prices.

China is a silver devouring monster.
>•Evidence: Japan’s silver output is tiny (Statista: 2.92 tons in 2022; CEIC: 1.746 tons in 2021), focused on refining imports rather than mining. China exports refined silver (including ingots) to Japan ($2.44M in powder-related forms, 2023), which Japan processes into advanced products like high-purity powder before re-exporting to China. This creates a “raw-to-finished” trade loop, as noted in 2024 analyses.
>5. China’s Silver Mine Production Insufficient; Imports Large Quantities of Concentrates from Peru
>•Factual Basis: Yes, fully substantiated. China is the world’s #2 silver producer (~3,300-3,400 tons in 2024), but its massive industrial demand (~18% of global fabrication, driven by PV/electronics) outstrips supply by 2-3x, necessitating imports of ~9,000+ tons annually in refined silver, concentrates, and scrap. Peru, the #3 producer (3,800-4,200 tons/year), is a top source for concentrates.
>•Evidence: China’s output (CEIC: 3,300 tons in 2024) meets only ~30-40% of needs; imports bridge the gap via Peru (5% of U.S. imports as proxy, but higher for China per USGS). Peru’s mines (e.g., Cerro de Pasco) export concentrates globally, with China as a major buyer amid Andean output declines. Silver Institute ranks Mexico (#1), China (#2), and Peru (#3), highlighting China’s import reliance.
>Overall Assessment
>This narrative “makes sense” as a snapshot of structural dependencies in the silver market: China’s vertical integration in solar is strong but incomplete, fostering circular trade (e.g., ingots to Japan, powder back). It’s fact-based, drawing from verifiable trade/production data, though Japan’s minor ingot output adds a slight caveat—it’s not a “non-producer” but effectively one for scale. No major contradictions; recent trends (e.g., 2023-2025 import surges) reinforce it amid PV boom. If this stems from a specific report, it echoes Silver Institute or SMM insights.

>According to chatgpt, they'll be lucky to get even 10 million ounces per year at scale.
10 million ounces total. Probably metals like copper, aluminum, antimony, silver, tantalum, gold and palladium with the amounts decreasing exponentially in that order.
The chemistry is sound, metal chlorides are much more volatile than the metals themselves. Aluminum chloride boils at 180C. The big issue is getting a million tons of motherboards to grind up to do large scale recovery.
The professor was also talking about using the process to recycle rare earths and other metals from decomissioned military hardware like aircraft and submarines. That might be a more feasible project.
I wonder if the professor's company paid Epoc Times to do the interview, or if they did it just because they hate the CCP so much.

That is evidence that normies are beginning to wake up and gold pulls silver up until silver slingshots past gold and shrinks that sweet ratio. We're not there yet, but we can all sense it's getting closer.

I don't expect free speech, I only expect transparent rules that are fairly enforced. I've been banned over complete bullshit on 4chan so many times. Like picrel. We are the people who create the value of a message board.
Hopefully 8ch will eventually grow to a critical mass and become the mature alternative to 4chan like it used to be before the NZ tragedy.

Premiums aren't too bad at Battalion Metals, unlike at Lear Capital shilled by Judge Napolitano. (who I actually like) Lear Capital is one of those scam companies that gets an exclusive custom mint run of their own bespoke medal, often in a weird weight, (3/4 oz, 30 grams, etc) and claim it is a limited edition that has numismatic value. Because no one else in the world sells that medal, you cannot look up a price, other than from the sole seller, Lear Capital.
They then charge 25% premium on the rounds, but will offer to buy them back from you for a 30% discount. If you want to sell.
This is how they could offer Tucker $20 million to run their advertisements. Judge Nap probably got a multimillion dollar deal with Lear Capital.

You're half right, in my opinion. There is NOT enough silver for use as specie money unless it becomes insanely valuable where the denominations are tiny. Like fractions of a Mercury dime.
Think Goldbacks (1/1000 ozt gold) but in silver.
On the other hand, in a VOLUNTARY monetary system, you don't need a SINGLE medium of exchange. People can be using any kind of trade good, including honey, eggs, beef, diesel, gasoline, blowjobs, etc.

Goldbacks are cool but that would be the world’s most expensive minting operation and normies would destroy them very fast. We are never going back to pre-civilisation barter economy dude, there’s a reason an agreed on monetary system has been a constant for all of human history, pretty much everywhere.
>yes thank you for the groceries mr supermarket, here is the equivalent value in blankets and copper wire
Nah, once the event happens, there might be barter economy for a bit while things get sorted and then banks will re-emerge, probably tokenising pm holdings cryptographically and you swipe your card to pay .0001oz of silver for a loaf of bread or whatever and letting you withdraw and deposit hard metal until the scam runs itself back again in a century or two. An actual use case for blockchain tech lmao. Stackers would be in a position to lease some of their stack to banks for yield.
