Usage Note
Silber is neuter (das Silber), so the gender 'm' on file is mistaken — like most metals it takes das. It also stands for silverware and a silver medal, as in Silber gewinnen ('to win silver').
Examples
"Der Ring ist aus reinem Silber."
Natural Translation
The ring is made of pure silver.

The ring is out-of pure silver.
