Wikipedia article

This article is about an older version of DF.

Tetrahedrite is an incredibly common ore of both copper and silver. Smelting tetrahedrite will always produce 4 copper bars and has a 20% chance of producing an additional single silver bar.

Tetrahedrite can be used in all reactions requiring a copper ore, but will only be used as silver ore if no other silver ores are available - in this situation, two tetrahedrite ores can be smelted together to make two billon bars.

When alloying Tetrahedrite into other metals as copper, it's best to smelt it down into bars and work with them, in order to get some silver out of it, than to smelt it directly from an ore into an alloy, unless you're direly short on fuel.
