It never does, aluminium is an element That could possibly be false. Aluminium doesn't decompose because it is a element, however it does oxidize. So if the question is how long will it take to all oxidize the answer is that it won't because the first layer of oxide will form a shield stopping oxidation. Summary: any amount larger than a few microns will never completely oxidize, unless persuaded. (Only if the aluminum is very finely divided - powdered - will it oxidize in air.)
Aluminum does not decompose the way organic materials do. It can take hundreds to thousands of years for aluminum to fully break down in the environment due to its high resistance to corrosion. However, aluminum can be recycled indefinitely, making it a valuable material for sustainability.

500-700 years.
There are some waste products that take a very long time to decompose in a landfill. Thus, they should be recycled, instead of simply thrown away. For example, an aluminum can takes around 100 years to decompose.

It can tale between 50 and 80 years for a boot rubber sole to decompose. Different items can take different amounts of time to decompose in a landfill. For example, a banana peel can take a few days, but an aluminum can take between 200 and 500 years.
Aluminum foil can take upwards of four hundred years to decompose without any assistance. That time can be reduced by exposure to certain acids or chemicals.
A typical juice box is composed of between three and six layers of plastic, paper and aluminum. It is estimated that it will take a juice box at least 300 years to decompose.

if the jar is glass, it wont decompose, sand does not decompose and if you heat up special sand that's glass.
1700 years to decompose
I believe it is 46 years or something like that..
