whats the melting point of the alloy? i know copper is around 2500C and aluminium either 1000C or 2000C(not sure, but they add something to it in manufacture and it reduces it's melting temp) and silver is even lower.

So i guess silver solder would be your only way, unless the melting point is found to be higher(ie. manageable with a small gas torch)
