The price of aluminum spiked this week to $2,740 a ton, a 10-year high, compared to $1,756 a year ago, in part because of the unrest in Guinea — the source of some material important to aluminum production. Beyond the recent hike, however, aluminum prices have mostly been rising all year.

Even though aluminium is more abundant than iron in the Earth's crust , aluminium is more expensive than iron. This is mainly because of the large amounts of electrical energy used in the extraction process.
