Aluminum (Al)

This metallic element is the most abundant in the earth's crust, but is found only in combination with other ores, chiefly in bauxite. Having good conductive and thermal properties, it is used to form over 100 hard, light, corrosion-resistant alloys. Aluminum became broadly obtainable and relatively inexpensive only after the discovery, little more than a century ago, of how to distill it by electrolytic reduction. Global refined production of primary aluminum tops 19 million metric tonnes annually. Capital Asset investors can place aluminum in their accounts in units of 5 metric tonnes.
