In Metals, we discover how the different metals are extracted from the ground by mining or quarrying. We see how furnaces heat up the metal ores until they are molten. Then we discover how metals can be shaped into the everyday objects from hand tools and food cans to cars, ships and bridges.

Fast Fact boxes contain nuggets of relevant information, and there is a Metals Fact File at the back of the book.
