How can scientists predict that the worlds aluminum supply will be gone someday?
There are two different kinds of natural resources, renewable and non-renewable. Minerals and metals mined from the Earth are for the most part a non-renewable resource. When it's gone that's it. With a renewable resource like trees, we plant and harvest over and over. But you can't pull metals and ore out of thin air.

Is bronze a renewable resource?
Renewable refers to things like wind or sunshine, which keep on coming even if we use them to produce energy. Other things are classed as renewable if we can grow them as fast as we use them. Like vegetables. Other things get used up and don't renew, like rain-forests and minerals. So bronze is non-renewable. It's an alloy of copper and tin, usually. When we use it all up, there's none left. All we can do is recycle it.
Is sand a nonrenewable resource?
In the same sense that Oil is a non renewable resource, sand is a non renewable resource as well. There is an awful lot of sand on the Earth to last for centuries, perhaps millenia, however if it was used as much as oil for example, it would eventually run out. This is so because rocks take a long time to reach a 'sand state' in sufficient quantities to be considered a resource so eventually, IF the sand did run out, people would have to wait at least several centuries before there would be enough sand again to be used. There is no renewing in this resource at all, the rock cycle is a closed system, however there are NOT equal quanities of material at each stage of the cycle, therefore making it unrenewable.
