Climate change leads to silver under the ocean

Huge quantities of silver are accumulating under the South China Sea. And this could also happen in all other seas. It has now been established that the silver in marine deposits off the coast of Vietnam has increased significantly since 1850. This is because the industrial revolution began at that time and greenhouse gases were increasingly released into the atmosphere. A possible link has now been found between global warming and the silver cycles in the ocean. Silver comes from the land and enters the oceans primarily through weathering. There, rainwater leaches elements from the rocks and carries them into the rivers. Researchers analyzed sediment cores from the upwelling area (coastal regions where cold water rises to the surface) of Vietnam in the eastern South China Sea. And they found a sharp increase in silver content around the year 1850.

Silver concentrations are also particularly high in upwelling areas where industry and environmental pollution are high. This includes San Francisco Bay, for example, where measurements were taken, as well as in the upwelling areas off Canada, Peru and Chile. Researchers even fear that the increased silver concentrations could harm the ocean ecosystem. Silver is not lost; it is just stored somewhere else. However, the silver for bars and coins, jewelry and industry comes from the mining companies that extract it from the ground. And companies such as MAG Silver or Endeavour Silver can ensure the supply of silver.
