So China is building 10,000 furnaces designed to make SILVER dissappear

in #science7 years ago (edited)

Yes, Silver Iodide cloud seedin is happening and its going to have an even bigger silver appetitie over time. Estimates for running these water/silver burning furnaces could reach $500 million in the years ahead(I could bet you the majority of the costs come from silver cost)

From Source:
How does it all work? To induce rainfall, the furnaces burn
chemical fuel to produce smoke laced with silver iodide.
When that silver iodide rises and mixes with clouds , it
crystalizes, setting off a chain reaction that precipitates,
well, precipitation.

I am still working on getting the amount of silver ounces burned per hour, but its proving quite difficult to find a good source.. Perhaps the community could help get down to the bottom of these burners and see how much silver is inside:)

Commentary: The more stories like this I hear, the more I understand why the silver price is being manipulated, One could easily say in this situation: with real world market silver price there would be no rain...

Well that's the first I've heard of this, I suppose there's no way to recycle the silver so that takes more off the table.

yep, silver - poofed

very interesting, thanks.

Thank you for your continued support of SteemSilverGold

But my main question is, why? why would they want to make silver disappear? do they want a monopoly on the market? or increase the price of silver?

i think they are buying water for silver
