hey there!
When we talk about how “Heavy” materials are, we are really talking about a property called “Density” Water is one of the denser materials around and is used as the “Standard” for comparison with other materials. Water at standard temperature (23 degrees centigrade and pressure (one atmosphere) weighs 1 gram per cubic centimeter. Most metals are denser than water, with the least dense being Lithium (0.53 gm/cubic centimeter ) and the densest being Osmiun (22.59 gm/ cubic centimeter).
The earliest known metals—common metals such as iron, copper, and tin, and precious metals such as silver, gold, and platinum—are heavy metals.
Hence, we can say that IRON- A primitive metal, is one of the heaviest metals.
