As far as I know, the silver resistant bacteria were initially isolated
from silver mines, tailings, and runoffs.

The silver-resistant /Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans/ were isolated from
22 acid mine drainage (AMD) samples collected from Dexing Copper Mine
and Chengmen Mountain Mine

Microbial silver toxicity is found in situation of industrial pollution,
especially those associated with mining

/P. diminuta/, a gram-negative bacteria, previously isolated from a
mining environment in Malaysia was used throughout the study (Ibrahim,
1993).

Silver rich soil does not
mean the same as a
"Silver Rich Mine".
Being a trace mineral,
likely a thimble full or a teaspoon full per acre would be more than
enough.
Silver rich soils are usually the result of disturbance by man or
nature, no doubt.
The "silver rich" soils could have from a fraction or a
mg to a few mg per 100 grams of soil.
And soil depths vary, so likely no
one can figure out the amount per acre.
Seems we had some discussion a
few months ago. Some did not believe that silver is a
necessary and
required nutrient.
I think I posted a reference that suggests it was in fact of
benefit to plants, but must be
compounded or chelated in the proper
manner.
Anytime we underestimate the adaptability of plants, animals,
bacteria, and virus, we have likely made a mistake.
And of course we all
believe in the benefits of silver. Yet few believe it is the answer
to every
problem of the world.
Let us know when you start you silver mine in
"silver rich" soils. <grin>
