Apart from a few exotic exceptions, [[metal]]s crystallize in three kinds of crystal structures: the BCC and FCC [[cubic crystal system|cubic crystal structures]] and the [[hexagonal crystal system|hexagonal]] close-packed [[close-packing of spheres#Fcc_and_hcp_latticesfcc_and_hcp_lattices|HCP]] crystal structure.
