A metal (from Greek μέταλλον métallon, "mine, quarry, metal") is a material that, when freshly prepared, polished, or fractured, shows a lustrous appearance, and conducts electricity and heat relatively well. Metals are typically malleable (they can be hammered into thin sheets) or ductile (can be drawn into wires).

In chemistry, a metal is an element that readily forms positive ions (cations) and has metallic bonds. ... A modern definition of metals is that they have overlapping conduction bands and valence bands in their electronic structure.
