It's drawn from the sludge of anode wastes that come from electronic copper refining.
Can silver tarnish into green?
Sterling silver contains a little over 7% copper and silver plate often has a base of copper or an alloy containing copper. Copper corrosion and some copper salts are green, as in the popular verdegris patina on outdoor copper scupture or roofing. I have found green corrosion on some of my silver plate, which I believe is copper sulfate and due to the reaction of sulphur compounds (found in many foods and also found in newspaper, so don't pack silver in newspaper!) with copper exposed by the wearing away of the silver plate.
How much is 1992 silver quarter worth?
The vast majority of 1992 quarters are not silver and are the standard copper-nickel composition. If your coin was not found in a silver proof mint set, most likely it is not silver but rather copper-nickel. If your coin was found in a silver mint proof set, leave it in its packaging and do not remove it. However, if you think that your coin is silver, there are a few tests to see if it really is silver. First off, your coin should have an "S" mintmark on the right side of George Washington's head by his ponytail. If your coin lacks this, it is not silver. However, even if your coin has an "S" mintmark doesn't make it silver, your coin could still be a copper-nickel proof. What you need to do then is look at the edge of your coin by the reeding. A copper-nickel coin will have a line of brownish red copper through it, a silver coin will not and a silver coin will appear 100% white. If there even is just a little bit of copper showing, it is copper-nickel and not silver. However, if your coin is one of the silver proofs, it is worth about $5.25 for the silver content and perhaps as much as $6 or 7 if still in mint-state condition.

copper, silver and carbon are not real ores but could be found as pure elements: carbon as coal, or diamond. Silver as nuggets. Copper as native copper specimen. Iron is almost never found in the free elemental state, and should be extracted from iron ore, which is not iron, but mainly made of iron oxides.
