This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for quicksilver that I've seen before include "Liquid mercury" , "Element of dentistry" , "so rapid" , "Mercury - volatile" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Independent, the New York Times, The Mirror, the Canadiana, The Telegraph and The Times.
