I'm starting to wonder if perhaps it's not "50% chance to produce silver" but "50% of a full bar of silver will be produced."  Much like how melting weapons and stuff down to reclaim the metal stores fractional amounts of the metal at the smelter until a full bar can be produced, I think galena (and tetrahedrite) smelting only creates a fraction of a bar of silver, requiring multiple pieces of galena to produce a bar rather than just random chance.

:Nevermind that.  It actually '''is''' a chance to produce silver, at least in the 40d version - three smelters managed to produce two bars of silver total from one piece of ore each.  Still, I'm glad I proved myself wrong, though I feel kind of stupid for questioning it now.

==Barely Magma Safe?==
 
 
The article says "Make sure there's nothing else that can generate heat around, or it will melt." It DOESN'T MATTER how far above 12000 Degrees Urist the melting point is, everything is just as magma-safe. Nothing will increase the temperature above 12000, because nothing in the game EXISTS hotter than 12000. If someone disagrees with me, I guess they can change it back :(
