The Type of Metal that Pot Metal is it's basically Zinc that has other types of metals mixed in with the pot metal such as aluminum, Tin, Lead and sometimes copper.

Pot Metal is very hard to sell for scrap metal nowadays unlike the old days when it was pretty easy to sell the pot metal.

Now I just throw any scrap pot metal into a shred pile instead and it goes as scrap tin.

Pot metal is not very desirable as scrap metal today like it was before.

Pot Metal is basically a type of cast metal that has been cast and then other metals are mixed in with the Pot Metal to improve the strength.
