    Hmmm, not that I want to disagree, but this is not what I was told in
    my certification class. We were told that it is NOT as dense, hence
    the lighter weight. The burning off of organic material (we were
    told) left spaces... fine cast silver doesn't have these 
    spaces it is, much more solid.
