contact usChlorargyrite is the mineral form of silver chloride (AgCl). Chlorargyrite occurs as a secondary mineral phase in the oxidation of silver mineral deposits. It was first described in 1877 for occurrences in the Broken Hill district, New South Waless, Australia.
contact usChlorargyrite is relatively common and has localities that possess fine material and/or large or pure quantities in Germany, the Czech Republic, England, Russia, the United States, Mexico, Chile, and Australia. Found typically in arid climates, Chlorargyrite occurs in oxidized areas above silver deposits, and can be a rich ore in some cases.

The veins are opened in depth by three long adit tunnels. In 1960-69, Silver State Mining Co held the property, and from 1969-1984 ASARCO owned it and drilled 485 holes totalling 160,000 feet.
contact us· The extreme insolubility of the silver halides (chlorargyrite, embolite, bromargyrite, iodargyrite) over broad pH and climatic ranges, besides efficient silver fixation as native silver, argentojarosite, or silver-bearing manganese oxides under the appropriate chemical conditions, explains the metal''s relative supergene immobility.

contact usSilver occurs as native silver, chlorargyrite, pyargyrite, argentite, argentojarosite, argentianpsilomelane, and silver-bearing iron oxides and hydroxides. On average about 70% of the contained silver is recoverable through cyanide leaching. The other 30% is contained in refractory iron compounds or is silica encapsulated.
