Aluminium isn't listed with the other metals, presumably as it's not considered to be toxic according to Wiki.

Re: Effect of metals in soils
That is strange because some aluminium, mainly from engine castings seem to corrode considerably forming a blue/white powder? I am no expert but it does not look very edible

Re: Effect of metals in soils
My apologies . I asked a question and got this as an answer ,why use a few words when a few thousand will do.
The best way to read this is to read quickly picking out the bits you understand and you get a good picture of just what what Alluminum is and where it is found or used . The very end part is Interesting .
By the way, I understood about 15% of it but it still gives a good impression as to what Alluminum is and does.
