Not necessarily. That would depend upon the metal detector design and the sensitivity settings.

In general, most metal detectors have the capability to detect both iron and aluminum since they both conduct electricity. However, adjusting the sensitivity settings on some metal detectors may allow you to differentiate between the two types of metals to some extent. Specialized metal detectors for industrial purposes may offer more specific discrimination between different metals.

Metal detectors are designed to detect all metals. However, many modern detectors have the ability to discriminate out metals of your choosing. You are basically setting the detector to remain silent when passing over the metals you don't want.
