This is very true. The TTL for the epa regulation for lead in water is 15 ppb, mercury is 2 ppb and arsnic is 10 ppb.
Thus if 100% of the .1% other metals in .999 silver were lead, or arsnic, then 10 ppm CS would still not exceed the epa regulations on drinking water. However the major contaminant in silver is usually copper and gold. Copper has an epa limit of 1.3 ppm (not ppb), and gold, like silver has no limit. Silver has a guideline in the National Drinking water Regulations of .1 ppm though. See http://www.epa.gov/safewater/mcl.html#mcls for complete information on the epa standards for drinking water.
