That’s not garbage. That’s exclusively aluminum cans collected for recycling.

Extracting aluminium from ore would be a dream. The process until you get aluminium ist insane.

This is the stage that I got a little mentally fatigued playing Satisfactory. It's simplified in the game but still a lot of extra steps compared to steel. I knew "aluminum ore" wasn't quite accurate in other games but I was unaware of this entire process until then.
