Where do all of the elements that are heavier than hydrogen come from?
Forming elements heavier than iron and nickel requires the input of energy. Super nova explosions result when the cores of massive stars have exhausted their fuel supplies and burned everything into iron and nickel. The star then collapses and explodes. Nuclei with mass heavier than nickel (gold, silver, lead, uranium, etc.) form in the explosions. This is called nucleosynthesis. These elements form over seconds, compared to the lighter ones that took billions of years to form, and are much rarer. This material is thrown out into space and can end up in later generation stars and planets.

What is used in magnets more often Nickel or Silver?
Nickel is used to make magnets more often than silver is, for two main reasons: 1). Silver is much more expensive than nickel. 2). Silver is diamagnetic. That means it has a weak, negative susceptibility to magnetic fields, it's slightly repelled by a magnetic field, and it does not retain the magnetic properties when the external field is removed. That means that even if silver were much cheaper than nickel, silver makes crummy magnets that are totally useless as magnets, and you would just have to use nickel anyway.
