What do we scrap

In metallurgy, a non-ferrous metal is a metal, including alloys, that does not contain iron in appreciable amounts. Generally more costly than ferrous metals are used because of desirable properties such as low weight, higher conductivity, non-magnetic property or resistance to corrosion.
