One of the greatest occurrences of native silver are the native copper deposits of the American/Canadian Great Lakes Region. I don't have a particular reference to point you to relative to your interest, but there is much written on these deposits. Start looking into them and hopefully you will find what you need.

Dear Group,
Has anyone have an idea about published work on micro-structure, and chemical analysis of Native silver?
Any information regarding sources and processes in which native silver/silver-copper is formed would also be highly appreciated!
Best wishes,
Adi
