I've little doubt it's 'do-able', I expect a centrifuge could be used to 
isolate the particulate silver, as for the ionic component...I'll leave that 
part to the experts?  When everything is in powder form...weigh it.

 

Sounds like a heck of a lot of trouble though <g>

 

Not too sure about "answers to a lot of questions", everyone uses different 
equipment which would result in differing end products, hence would make it 
difficult to form any sort of 'standard?' from the exercise.  An individual 
with the right equipment could find out exactly what *they* had in *their* 
product I imagine, and then praps some mathematical data to follow for anyone 
who may wish to attempt to reproduce similar results using *the* exact same 
setup and procedures etc etc. Dunno, that's way out of my league.
