If silver goes extremely high, I would think that recycling of Silver as well as scraping silver goods will become a substantial supply source. Right now Silver recycling supplies ~215MoZ to the supply, approx 25% of the supply. At some point, this number should go up substantially.

Another issue is that the Silver (or certain compounds thereoff) toxicity has apparently been underestimated and has recently been re-categorized. I became aware of this when we reviewed updated MSDS (material safety datasheets)s for Silver use. In our case, it meant that we would not use a process using Silver. Again, this is probably not impact demand now, but LT it will (imo).
