This suggests that the element may exhibit properties of both metals and nonmetals, placing it in the category of metalloids. Metalloids typically have properties of both metals and nonmetals, such as being semi-conductors or having variable oxidation states. Examples of metalloids include silicon, germanium, and arsenic.

Is metal or non metal?
"Ore" is a mixture of some kind of metal that you are trying to extract, and the rock that is generally mixed in with it.
Is ore metal or non metal?
Ore is not a metal itself; it is a natural material from which metals can be extracted. Ores typically contain one or more metals in combination with other elements, such as oxygen, sulfur, or carbon. The metal is separated from the ore through processes like smelting or leaching.
