<I cannot imagine it would be economical for you in the US to buy from here there must be a source in Mexico ( the largest producer of Silver). Good luck.> I wanted to say something about "Mexican silver" from my experience as a jewelry crafter. In talking to two other craftspersons about Mexican silver at craft shows, I learned that it contains very little (if any) silver, but rather is a compound of nickel, zinc and some other metals. I discovered this because the jewelrysmiths were selling lovely abalone bracelets etc. REALLY cheap, and I asked them how they could keep their prices so low. This is how they did it. It's a typical marketplace ploy to fool people, and apparently it is legal to call such a compound "Mexican silver." For people who buy jewelry thinking they are getting the real thing and instead get this, it is simply not nice; but if you're using "Mexican silver" to make CS, the difference could be deadly. People on this list who talk about Mexican silver may simply mean 99.99% pure silver from Mexico. However, I would check this out before you make a terrible mistake. Please let the list know what you find out--there might be two different types of "Mexican silver," and I'm simply unaware of this.
