Eg, iron or copper (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

metal

I believe this is a double definition.

'eg iron' is the first definition.
(I know that Fe is a type of metal)

'copper' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for metal that I've seen before include "Silver or gold, say" , "Musically it can be heavy" , "Like steel cutlery" , "Copper possibly" , "Eg, copper" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
