Metal
Definition:
(n.) An elementary substance, as sodium, calcium, or copper, whose oxide or hydroxide has basic rather than acid properties, as contrasted with the nonmetals, or metalloids.

(n.) A mine from which ores are taken.
(n.) The substance of which anything is made; material; hence, constitutional disposition; character; temper.
