Well, cost isn't even that big of a difference either.
Copper/Aluminium stock prices
1 tonne of Grade A Copper is $1544 US
1 tonne of Primary Grade Aluminium is $1340 US
However, since copper's density is ~3x that of aluminium, it will cost nearly 4x as much for the same volume of it....
600g of copper costs $0.92 US
200g of aluminium costs $0.27 US
Neither amount will break the bank.
Consider the
price of silver
600g of silver costs ~$100 US
