Metals were a type of solid material that was typically durable, able to conduct electricity, and could be made to shine. Often, metals were mined as ore and processed for industrial applications, such as starship and droid construction as well as power generation. Other times, metals were used in decorative purposes such as art or jewelry.Thrawn Ascendancy: Greater Good
