Silver ore
Silver ore is a free-to-play item, with a high alchemy value of 45 coins. The simplest way for an Ironman to get Silver ore is to buy it: Ardougne Silver Stall in East Ardougne sells it for 75 coins, and 4 other shops stock it too.

Ironman verdict
4 monsters drop it, and the best one is also the easiest: Cave goblin miner (level 7), at 5/128 (about one every 26 kills). You can also make it yourself: it takes 22 Divination and gives 5.2 Divination XP, using 2 × Bright energy and 3 × Iron ore. Other sources include Void ravager, Silver rock and Silver stall (Keldagrim). Making ten takes 20 × Bright energy and 30 × Iron ore and gives 52 Divination XP. Reaching level 22 Divination takes 5,624 XP in total; the Divination calculator counts the actions and materials to any target, and the Divination guide has the Ironman training route. 2 recipes use Silver ore, including Gold ore and Silver bar. Silver ore is available on free-to-play worlds too. It is tradeable on normal accounts, but an Ironman cannot use the Grand Exchange or trade for it, so the sources on this page are the whole list. High Alchemy turns one into 45 coins, which is 30 less than the shop price, so buying it to alch does not pay.
