| The metalloids are adjacent to a diagonal line from boron to polonium. |
| The properties of the semimetals, or metalloids, lie between those of the metals and the nonmetals. |
| Inasmuch as chemical properties determine toxicological properties, metalloids should not be considered as a subset of metals but as a subset of nonmetals. |
| Such complex composite materials do not only contain aluminium, but also metalloids and precious metals such as copper, silver, gold and platinum. |
| The projects are delivering geoscience knowledge, in partnership with other groups on specific issues that deal with potentially toxic metals and metalloids in the environment. |
| This award-winning site has a number of sections relating to alkaline earth metals, transition metals, other metals and metalloids. |
