Electrum bars can be made at a smelter by a dwarf with the furnace operating labor activated.
One gold bar and one silver bar, or one gold nugget and one silver ore (but not a mix of bars and ore), produces two electrum bars. Smelting bars together gains you no net value, as you use a value 30 and value 10 material to produce two units of value 20, but smelting the ore direct to two bars saves you a unit of fuel if you don't have access to magma. Moreover, low-value galena or tetrahedrite ore can be substituted for native or horn silver, producing more value overall than would be generated from smelting the ores separately.
