In Alaska there are three commercial king crab species. Red king crabs have been the commercial "king" of Alaska's crabs. It occurs from British Columbia to Japan with Bristol Bay and the Kodiak Archipelago being the centers of its abundance in Alaska. Blue king crabs live from Southeastern Alaska to Japan with the Pribilof and St. Matthew islands being their highest abundance areas in Alaska. Golden king crabs are distributed from British Columbia to Japan with the Aleutian Islands their Alaska stronghold of abundance.

Silver plays yet another role in the collection of solar energy: efficient reflection of solar heat. Silver is the best reflector of thermal energy (after gold). Near Barstow, California, 1,926 silver-coated mirrors reflect solar heat onto black-coated stainless steel tubes atop a 300-foot tower. This heats the tubes and the nitrate salt inside them to over 1050oF. The scalding hot salt is then piped to boilers turning water to steam which drives steam turbines geared to electric generators. They now generate sufficient electricity to power 10,000 homes.
