World of Finance Folds and Silver in 1916 Mining Outlook
The 1916 outlook for precious metals shows strong silver demand and record potential output, led by silver ores and copper, lead, and zinc byproducts. Gold production remains buoyant with Philippine output boosting totals, while 1915 high for silver may be surpassed. Prices rose sharply late 1915 into 1916 due to Far East demand and wartime coinage needs.
