A. Hi Stanley. Hopefully other readers have better powers of visualization and will be able to help you, but to me a picture would be worth a thousand words :-)

Luck & Regards,

? Some more info here would be really useful in helping you.

Zinc plates? Pure zinc ingots? zinc coated plates of another metal? And aluminium... flake? chips? dust? sheets? ingots? Storage conditions: dry? wet? other things in proximity in the warehouse?
