is silver found in nuggets
Silver nuggets are rare but can still be found when prospecting, usually for gold. Silver nuggets are wriggly bits of silver prospectors may find on the surface when panning in streams or rocky outcrops. Also by metal detection. As in gold nuggets, silver nuggets are found on the surface rather than underground or open face mining. They are rare as most silver is found underground and usually combined with sulfur, arsenic and other nasties. Also in various ores such as argentite and chlorargyrite.
