Hello there, folks.

I am starting this thread for those who are interested in
'hard money' - call it 'paleo-investing' it you will.

The silver price has apparently been suppressed - for a while.
Many so-called pundits and prognosticators predict that it MAY
soon move upwards.

The purpose of this thread is to keep track of these things.
Participate if you will...

I'll believe it when I see it - and maybe not even then.

Lead would be the only precious metal worth buying and then there is a limit it does no good.

Gold and Silver are only worth something if the economy crashes slowly and recovers slowly. Its controlled by the same people who control paper money. They tell you to buy it while its high and when you can't hold it because you need the money you sell it back to them at a low price. They win all the way around.

Lead is a noble metal. Some noble metals are also precious metals - the former has scientific justification, the latter just manmade significance. Some may classify lead a precious metal but IMO that's a stretch. However, lead ammo may very well be precious in some instances.

Hmm, I spent 12 years as a precious metal refiner, as afar as I remember, noble metals are those that need to be reduced by more than one acid, usually Aqua Regia. (Hydrochloric/Nitric)

Lead is reduced by nitric and made a to a sulphate with the addition of sulphuric, that's how to remove lead from solution.

Noble metals are Platinum Group metals, and Gold, at least those that I have worked with, have zero idea about uranium etc...

Whoa...I am impressed, DCW :-)

And here I'd though the term "noble metals" was just...well, a term.

A definition of a noble metal is one that is resistant to oxidation and corrosion. Cetainly gold falls into that catagory as it requires Aqua Regia ( a mixture of HCl and nitric acid)for it to dissolve. SOme classify copper as a noble metal but it will readily dissolve in just nitric acid (gives off some very pretty colors when it does).
