Is tin more rare than aluminum

1 answer

Yes, tin is generally considered to be more rare than aluminum. Aluminum is one of the most abundant elements in the Earth's crust, making up about 8% of it. In contrast, tin is much less common, accounting for about 0.001% of the Earth's crust. This significant difference in abundance contributes to the rarity and cost of tin compared to aluminum. Additionally, the extraction and processing methods for aluminum are well-established, which further affects their availability and pricing in the market.
