In that case you have the elements necessary to make silver cyanide ( AgCN ) and with oxygen silver cyanate ( AgCNO ). Silver cyanide is virtually insoluable in water (0.23 ppm), so if any is made it would be in the gunk. I have no experimental data to determine if this reaction can even happen in a typical setup, this is data from the CRC handbook.
