Good article, I'll have to read it properly when I've got time.

First thoughts though I reckon the 300 year average is meaningless, I like how the first chart only goes back to 1971 and if we take the outliers out IE the massive peaks and troughs what's the median GSR!
 
Its got a long way to go to get to the historical average of 12 or 16:1.

I wouldnt even count the last 50 years of manipulation in those figures.
 
Long ago there wasn't a lot of industrial uses for silver, and 60 years ago they were removing it from circulating currency, so for the last 60 years there would have been ample stockpiles of old currency silver for the current industrial use. But I reckon they might be running out of this old silver and probably having to rely more on newly mined silver. I have no hard data, so this is just a theory of mine.
 
At the site I'm on, Grasberg in the mountains of Papua Indonesia, they mine copper with significant Gold/Silver/PGM inclusions. Reading through their Geological Reports recently and across the 4 different orebodies they are mining inside the mountain, the GSR is between 3 and 5 :oops:
They are producing ~1.3-1.5Moz of gold per year so not "trace" amounts ;)
