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 consumes a value 30 material and a value 10 material to produce two units of value 20, thus producing no net gain (or loss); you're taking a high-value item and a medium-value item and averaging their values. Smelting the ores directly saves you two units of [[fuel]] (if you don't have access to [[magma]]). Moreover, low-value [[galena]] or [[tetrahedrite]] can be substituted for [[native silver]] or [[horn silver]], producing more value overall than would be generated from smelting the ores separately. Thus, if you have access to galena or tetrahedrite, producing electrum bars creates value.
