Aluminum comprises 8% of the crustal elements.
Silicates are the mineral group that make up the highest percentage of Earth's crust, accounting for about 90% of the crust by volume. They are composed of silicon and oxygen, the two most abundant elements in the Earth's crust.
The most common chemical elements in the crust are oxygen (46.6%), silicon (27.7), aluminum (8.1), iron (5.0), calcium (3.6), potassium (2.8), sodium (2.6), and magnesium (2.1).Oxygen is a non-metal and silicon is a metalloid - so the most common metal is aluminum.
Earth's crust is primarily composed of oxygen and silicon, with other elements like aluminum, iron, calcium, sodium, and potassium making up the rest. These elements combine to form minerals like quartz, feldspar, and pyroxene, which are the building blocks of the crust.
With a very sizable iron core and a (by comparison) wafer-thin crust, I doubt that the earth's crust even approximates a full percentage point.
The Earth's crust has the greatest amount of oxygen. Oxygen makes up about 46.6% of the Earth's crust by weight, primarily in the form of oxides such as silicon dioxide (SiO2) and aluminum oxide (Al2O3).
The removel of aluminum from the earths crust

8.1% by weight
Aluminum :D
About 7% of the earths crust
The percentage of Earth's crust is less than one percentage in terms of Earth's volume. The Earth's crust is actually a thin layer.
its the percentage in mass !
Aluminum 7.5 to 8.1%
aluminum
6%
Virtually all of earths aluminum ore is in the top layer of the earth, the crust.
iron and magnesium
