You would be much better off to use a copper strip or heavy copper wire as a
ground bus, laid around the base of the vertical, with the radials brazed to
the bus using silver alloy brazing rods and a Mapp gas torch. I put mine in
over 20 years ago and the radial/bus assemby is still intact.
Aluminium gradually turns to a white powder after prolonged contact with
moist earth.
