Have you ever frozen well water that has lots of dissolved minerals? Didn't the mineral freeze right along with the ice (as long as they were ionic)? I'd suspect the ionic portion of CS will freeze right along with the water (haven't tried it) and only the larger silver particles will settle out -- but that would happen with the CS even if it wasn't frozen. -- Dean -- from (almost) Des Moines -- KB0ZDF -- The silver-list is a moderated forum for discussion of colloidal silver.
