Hello Erwin Meester,

There are several ways to supress a metal fire. The only way to do so is to
cool it down or the prevent oxygen to get to the metal.
The extinguishing methods include : dry sand, aluinaarde, cement, graphite,
special extinguising powder.

There are too kinds of powder, one for all kinds of fire (A,B,C and D)  and
one only for B and C. They are all metalsalts with waterresisting coating.

I hope this information helps you.
