Where is aluminum found in nature?

It is not a combination of iron and tin, or anything else besides protons, electrons, and neutrons.\n\nThere's a naturally occurring ore called bauxite, which was discovered near Les Baux in the south of France, which is refined to produce aluminum.\n\nAt this link   \n\nhttp://volcano.und.edu/vwdocs/minerals/bauxite.html\n\nthere's a pie chart showing where it is mined today.  A lot of it comes from Australia, but that's not the only source.

Commercial products deffinately have aluminum in them.  It's in the baking powder particulary.  Health food products are usually safer and those sweetners you mentioned are ok too.\nYou might want to check out Stevia which a great natural sweetiner.

Unfortunately, a lot of substances are a mixture of metals and nonmetals. But here are a few suggestions:\n\n-Aluminum foil. Need I say more?\n-Dry ice, carbon dioxide, is made up of two nonmetals\n-Potassium is a metal you should be able to find as a vitamin. They also make iron and calcium supplements.\n-You might be able to find a mercury thermometer.\n-Helium balloons. \n-Gold, silver, and copper jewelry (although most jewelry will actually be alloys of a few metals)\n\nI hope that helped.

Coal, iron, uranium, and manganese are pretty common. Agricultural resources include coffee, cocoa, yams, and maize. Africa is the second largest continent with vast resources.

Some elements are not natural to earth, and were brought here by meteroites and such things that crashed into Earth (and still crash into today). Some of the heavy metals, especially...certain other elements. \n\nSome are just unstable elements or compounds, and so they break down rather quickly, especially the radioactive ones where their half-lives are as short as days or minutes. Or are man-made.\n\nYou also have to go down to the basics of Chemistry. Some elements HATE to be alone, they are unstable in their groundstates, and they like to bond with other atoms to form compounds.\n\n"Elements 58 to 71 (on the periodic table) are known as lanthanide or rare earth elements. These elements are found on earth in only very small amounts.\nElements 90 to 103 are known as the actinide elements. They include most of the will known elements which are found in nuclear reactions. The elements with larger atomic numbers than 92 do not occur naturally. They have all been produced artificially by bombarding other elements with particles.\n\n\nThere are a wide array of reason as to why some elements are more rare. I hope this shed a little bit of light to your question.

Of course, aluminum wins as it has the lowest density.  The passivating oxide film makes aluminum non-corrosive, which is a great comfort to the metallurists and structural engineers responsible for keeping these birds in flight, rather than cracked up over an ocean.

Sulfur can often be found around fumerals and hotsprings in highly volcanic areas.  If I remember correctly, I've seen some deposits in Yellowstone and in Hawaii Volcanos National Park.\n\nWikipedia has an article which describes other places to find sulfur.

Aluvial soil is silt carried by a river. It is found on land around the river because of flooding and is carried to the mouth of the river where it creates a build-up...\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alluvial\n Eventually it becomes a land mass called a 'delta'.\nAn oasis is an area of dense growth in a desert, usually surrounding a spring or similar water source...\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oasis\nA 'wadi' is a dry riverbed that only flows seasonally...\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wadi

Isotopes ;\nAluminium has nine isotopes. Only the stable isotope, Al-27 and the radioactive isotope, Al-26 occur naturally. Al-26 is produced from argon in the atmosphere by spallation caused by cosmic-ray protons. Aluminum isotopes have found practical application in dating marine sediments, manganese nodules, glacial ice, quartz in rock exposures, and meteorites. The ratio of Al-26 to beryllium-10 has been used to study the role of transport, deposition, sediment storage, burial times, and erosion on 105 to 106 year time scales.\n\nCosmogenic Al-26 was first applied in studies of the Moon and meteorites. Meteorite fragments, after departure from their parent bodies, are exposed to intense cosmic-ray bombardment during their travel through space, causing substantial Al-26 production. After falling to Earth, atmospheric shielding protects the meteorite fragments from further Al-26 production, and its decay can then be used to determine the meteorite's terrestrial age. Meteorite research has also shown that Al-26 was relatively abundant at the time of formation of our planetary system. Possibly, the energy released by the decay of Al-26 was responsible for the remelting and differentiation of some asteroids after their formation 4.6 billion years ago.

Most deodorant products contain aluminum. In large amounts aluminum can be harmful for people with kidney disease. However, minimal amounts of aluminum are absorbed into the bloodstream as long as the deodorant is applied to the skin as directed. Aluminum and aluminum-containing products do not have any effect on kidney stones

Try using Tom's of Maine Natural Deodorant. It is all natural and does not contain aluminum. It does come with a scent or scent free. You can find it in stores or health stores.

Manganese is one of the more abundant elements in the earth's\n    crust and is widely distributed in soils, sediments, rocks, water, and\n    biological materials. The major sources of man-made environmental\n    pollution by manganese arise in the manufacture of alloys, steel, and\n    iron products. Other sources include mining operations, the production\n    and use of fertilizers and fungicides, and the production of synthetic\n    manganese oxide and dry-cell batteries. Organomanganese fuel\n    additives, though only a minor source at present, could significantly\n    increase exposure, if they come into widespread use. Average manganese\n    concentrationsa in soils range from about 500 to 900 mg/kg and\n    concentrations in sea water range from 0.1 to 5 µg/litre. Surface\n    waters may have a manganese content of 1-500 µg/litre, but in areas\n    where high concentrations of manganese occur naturally, levels may be\n    considerably higher. Average manganese levels in drinking water range\n    from 5 to 25 µg/litre.\n\n        Manganese is present in all foodstuffs, usually at concentrations\n    below 5 mg/kg. However, concentrations in certain cereals, nuts, and\n    shellfish can be much higher, exceeding 30 mg/kg in some cases. Levels\n    in finished tea leaves may amount to several hundred mg/kg.\n\n        Manganese has been found in measurable quantities in practically\n    all air samples of suspended particulate matter. Annual average levels\n    in ambient air in unpolluted urban and rural areas vary from 0.01 to\n    0.07 µg/m3.

The ground. Bauxite is mined and the aluminum separated from it using a electro-chemical process.

You can find international suppliers at the reference.  It appears that many materials are used including plastic and aluminum.

The red color is found in many soils around the world.\nThe cause of that is the presence of oxides and hydroxides of Fe and Al.\nThose soils are known as ''weatherized'', usually done by many, many years of exposure to heat and humidity.

about the two are mentioned, both are found in the body, but the excess is dangerous with less amount of magnesium than aluminum. have you mentioned other?

Aluminium production is situated close to bauxite mines and where electricity is cheap. Bauxite is the ore of Al and a lot of electricity is needed to make Al.\n\nBenefits: Extraction unnecessary, a lot of power is saved.\n\nDisadvantages: This Al is not virgin and there fore contains a lot of residual stress.
