Does refrigeration actually extend the life of batteries?

Subject: [OM] 640 Battery
Has anyone found a Canadian supplier of mercury
batteries like the Mallory 640 used in the Oly 35-ED
camera? A dealer in Seattle told me that he has gotten
them in the past in Vancouver by buying in bulks of 100
at a time (for his own personal use, of course!) The
batteries will hold their charge 8-10 years if refrigerated.
He ran out of the PX6xx mercury cells about a year ago
and has not found a new supplier as yet.
