List,

It would appear that 99.99% fine silver is almost impossible to obtain, even in 
USA, below is a copy of two emails from Hauser & Miller, who are I believe 
leading precious metal dealers in USA. Any comments anyone?

John in Australia


Dear John,

All we carry is .999 fine silver, not .9999. It is available in 12ga, we can 
ship to Australia, and we do accept Visa.

Thanks.

John,

Sorry, not off-hand do I know any merchants of 4-9's silver. As for the 
impurities, usually it is copper but of course it varies and to find out 
exactly we would have to do a chemical analysis. 

The silver runs about $3.50 a foot approximately. Our fax number is 
+1-314-487-0394. That should work.

If you have any more problems faxing you can always e-mail in an order.

Thanks!
