Danniken" quickly quoth:

Howdy,

I needed some 1/4" bolts for an electrical connection, and as the fastener
store was out of 2" long brass bolts, I was sold something called "silken
bronze." According to the fellow behind the counter, they are 95% copper.

No, no, no. Silken bronze is synthetic, primarily made up of Polyester
Lead, with minor alloys of coppernumium and brass.
