<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 1432864, member: 26302"]How I look at it, and I could be wrong, is mine production is much higher and industrial demand. Ignoring "recycling", new silver is much higher than industrial usage. The difference is making jewelry, coins, stockpiling, and silverware. Now, my question is is this really a "use". Is this silver forever "used" in these items, or are they really all forms of inventory? Yes, there are some coins that are not readily meltable, but is an ASE a "use" of silver, or is it a "inventory" of silver to be melted in the future if we need silver for industry?</p><p><br /></p><p>That question determines how you view the silver market I believe.
