Use a magnet to remove the iron filings. The add water to dissolve the salt, and the aluminum filings will settle to the bottom of the container. Pour that salt water into a pan, heat it and evaporate the water, leaving the salt in the pan.

Use a magnet to remove the iron filings. The table salt and aluminum filings will remain behind. Then add water to the mixture of salt and aluminum. The salt will dissolve leaving the solid aluminum behind. Filter this mixture to obtain the aluminum. Then evaporate the filtrate (water) and obtain the solid salt.

How do you separate aluminum from soil?

With no great ease! Problematically, aluminum is not magnetic so there goes the easy option. To extract aluminum from ore or in prohibitively small quantities, from soil....it might be a smart idea to take the soil sample and heat it to a high temperature - burning the organic matter and liquidising the aluminum for easier collection. The problem here is, you would end up with aluminum oxide. Then, massive amounts of electricity is sent through the aluminum oxide to separate the oxygen molecules. What remains is a powder that is grittier than baby powder, almost with a texture of regular table salt.
