Silver to Gold Ratio

I am surprised that the current silver to gold ratio is still well over 40:1 (though I realize it has gradually gained ground). Does anyone know if there is any mining report which shows the annual silver output relative to gold? I cannot imagine that silver is coming out of the world’s mines at 40+ times the rate of gold. From what I have read, primary silver mines are quite rare. Other than bullion, silverware and jewelry uses, it seems that all the silver used for photography, electronics, solar panels, etc is too cost prohibitive to try and ever recover and reuse. In an electronic age where nothing else tops silver’s conductivity and reflective properties shouldn’t silver be taken more seriously?? That coupled with the balooning debts of the worlds nations lead me to believe that silver is still asleep price-wise and has to go up dramatically in price relative to gold at some point soon. Gold is the current vogue and don’t think it is overvalued BUT… I see silver as delivering the most profit potential in the future. Curious to see what your opinions are!
