Aluminum is an abundant metal
which comes from bauxite. Bauxite is a type of ore which looks like clay
and contains aluminum. After, the workmen dig up the bauxite They Then
grind the bauxite. Then they place it into pressureized tanks. The other
substances which are left over from grinding the bauxite forms a
mass. Then the workmen use filters to seperate the mass from the liquid
by using filters. The workmen also, put the liquid through many other processes
besides the filters. After, this process it yields to a powdery white chemical
called "alumina". The final process which the workmen do is, seperating
the aluminum from the oxygen by using electricity. After all these processes
occur the finished product which is called "Aluminum" is produced. Aluminum
is bright and has a silvery finish. Finally, this metal which is called
aluminum comes in many different shapes, sizes, and forms. |
