The phase content of a conventional zinc‐free silver amalgam and a high copper silver amalgam has been determined by X‐ray diffraction and by stoichiometric calculation. The γ2 content in the high copper amalgam is zero for low mercury contents and increases with rising mercury concentration. The γ2 content also rises with prolonged annealing of the alloy.
