Aluminum

Aluminum is a material added by various mods.

Aluminum is not the same as Aluminium, added by the GregTech mods. They cannot be converted in a Forge Lexicon, and they are not compatible in the Ore Dictionary. Calling it Aluminum instead of Aluminium was a design choice by Soaryn, the author of XyCraft.
