Metal, is any of a class of substances characterized by high electrical and thermal conductivity as well as by malleability, ductility, and high reflectivity of light.The most abundant varieties in the Earth's crust are aluminium, iron, calcium, sodium, potassium, and magnesium’ The vast majority of metals are found in ores (mineral-bearing substances), but a few such as copper, gold, platinum, and silver frequently occur in the free state because they do not readily react with other elements.
