Well aluminum comes from a substance called bauxite. Bauxite is a fossil fuel. A fossil fuel is a fuel that is formed over the course of many years. Hence, once we use up the bauxite supply, we will actually be using up the aluminum supply, it will take a long time for it to form again.

2nd Answer:

Well, actually, bauxite is NOT a fossil (carbon-based) fuel. It is a mineral. There is a finite amount of it on the planet, but it does not appear to be in danger of running out anytime soon. Plus, aluminum, while expensive to produce initially, is one of the most ECOLOGICALLY and ECONOMICALLY prudent materials to recycle - takes only 10 to 15% of the original energy to recycle an aluminum can. So go ahead and recycle your aluminum, it's one of the few things it makes real sense to recycle.
