The document discusses several metals that are important for industrial use: copper, lead, zinc, mercury, magnesium, and titanium. Copper has been used for thousands of years in bronze and brass production. Lead and zinc often occur together in the same ore veins, with Russia and Australia being major producers. Mercury is the only metal found in liquid form naturally, with the Philippines having deposits of the mercury-containing mineral cinnabar. Magnesium and titanium are both light but strong metals used in industrial applications like aluminum. Gold and silver are also found in the Philippines in placer deposits or as flakes and nuggets.

This topic describes two main categories of corrosion. It also explains the electrochemical corrosion phenomena and the differences between the types of corrosion. This topic also states the corrosion preventive steps.
The most commonly used non-ferrous metals are aluminium, copper, lead, and zinc. Millions of tonnes of nonferrous scrap are recovered annually and used by smelters, refiners, ingot makers, foundries, and other manufacturers. Secondary materials are essential to the industry’s survival because even new metals often require the combined use of recycled materials.
Brass is a metallic alloy that is made of copper and zinc. The proportions of zinc and copper can vary to create different types of brass alloys with varying mechanical and electrical properties. It is a substitutional alloy: atoms of the two constituents may replace each other within the same crystal structure.
Birth stones have been used since ancient times. They believed that birthstone protects its user. This belief still exists among people today. There are many myths and myths surrounding the birthstone. Separate birth stones are also used for twelve months.
ALUMINUM
THE 13TH ELEMENT IN THE PERIODIC TABLE OF ELEMENTS
*WHAT IS ALUMINUM?
- Aluminum derives its name from alum. The Latin name for alum is 'alumen' meaning bitter salt.Note on Naming: Sir Humphry Davy proposed the name aluminum for the element, however, the name aluminium was adopted to conform with the "ium" ending of most elements. This spelling is in use in most countries.
Aluminium was also the spelling in the U.S. until 1925, when the American Chemical Society officially decided to use the name aluminum instead.
*WHO DISCOVERED ALUMINUM?
-Hans Christian Oersted
*FACTS ABOUT OERSTED
-Hans Christian Oersted launched a new epoch in science when he discovered that electricity and magnetism are linked.
He showed by experiment that an electric current flowing through a wire could move a nearby magnet.
The discovery of electromagnetism set the stage for the eventual development of our modern technology-based world.
Oersted also discovered the chemical compound piperine and achieved the first isolation of the element aluminum.

*Uses and properties
-Image explanation
Aircraft fuselages and aluminium foil are just two of the many and varied uses of this element.
-Appearance
Aluminium is a silvery-white, lightweight metal. It is soft and malleable.malleable.
4. Copper has been used by
man for thousand of years.
It is used in the
manufacture of bronze and
brass. Copper occurs as a
free mental in nature but it
is generally associated with
a variety of ores.
8. which is know to the layman as
quick silver , is the only mental
found in the liquid state. The
Philippines owns one of the few
rich mercury deposits in the
form of cinnabar (HgS) in
Puerto prices, Palawan.
12. Is very similar to aluminum
both in properties and uses.
Like aluminum it occurs in
nature with several mineral
but it requires elaborate
metallurgical processes to
transform it into a mental.
14. Isalso light weight strength and
resistant to and corrosion When
compared with aluminum and
magnesium ,titanium is heavier
but it retains its strength even
when subjected to higher
temperatures.
16. Gold and silver are the two
precious metals which are both
found in the Philippines. Gold
may be in the form of flakes or
nuggets and when found in
loose materials , placer mining
method are used.
