Aluminum is an abunant (2) metal (1) and has many uses (3). It comes from (4) an ore (5), bauxite. It looks like clay (6) and contains aluminum (7) and several (8) other substances (9). Workmen extract these other substances from the bauxite (10). They grind (11) the bauxite and put (12) it in pressured (13) tanks. The other substances form a mass (14) which is removed (15) with filters (16), and a liquid remains (17). They put it through several other processes (18) and it finally yields (19) a powdery (20), white (21), chemical called alumina (22). Alumina is a mixture (23) that contains aluminum (24) and oxygen (25). Workmen separate (26) the two by using electricity (27) producing a metal (28) which is light (29), has a bright (31) silvery (32) luster (30), and comes in many forms (33).
