Derbeke
The Derbeke ( rus, Дербеке; sah, Дэрбэкэ) is a river in the Republic of Sakha in Russia. It is a left hand tributary of the Adycha, of the Yana basin. It is long, with a drainage basin of . It is an excellent river for boating, but it flows in an area without permanent population. Course The river begins in a rocky gorge in the eastern flank of the Khunkhadin Range, part of the southern section of the Verkhoyansk Range. It heads roughly north and northeast, leaving the Verkhoyansk mountains, and meandering slowly across a swampy area in the Yana Plateau with numerous lakes, including Lake Emanda ( sah, Эмандьа). The river gains speed again in its lower course at the feet of the southeastern side of the Nelgesin Range when it flows through a narrow mountain valley. Finally it joins the Adycha upstream from the Nelgese, the largest tributary.Derbeke — Great Soviet Encyclopedia in 30 vols. / Ch. ed. A.M. Prokhorov - 3rd ed. - M, 1969-1978. The main trib ...

Silver
Silver is a chemical element with the Symbol (chemistry), symbol Ag (from the Latin ', derived from the Proto-Indo-European wikt:Reconstruction:Proto-Indo-European/h₂erǵ-, ''h₂erǵ'': "shiny" or "white") and atomic number 47. A soft, white, lustrous transition metal, it exhibits the highest electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity, and reflectivity of any metal. The metal is found in the Earth's crust in the pure, free elemental form ("native silver"), as an alloy with gold and other metals, and in minerals such as argentite and chlorargyrite. Most silver is produced as a byproduct of copper, gold, lead, and zinc Refining (metallurgy), refining. Silver has long been valued as a precious metal. Silver metal is used in many bullion coins, sometimes bimetallism, alongside gold: while it is more abundant than gold, it is much less abundant as a native metal. Its purity is typically measured on a per-mille basis; a 94%-pure alloy is described as "0.940 fine". As one of th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
