Zinc is usually combined with other elements.
The metal would be known as an elemental. Metal is most commonly found in nature as an ore, a mixture of the metal and other elements. Most metals are not found in their elemental form, copper being one of the exceptions.
the majority of metals are found combined with other elements in nature. Only a few are found uncombined- the best known example is gold.
Manganese is a metallic element. Since it is not iron it is non-ferrous. It is found uncombined with other elements in nature so it could also be considered a mineral in this sense; however, there are minerals containing manganese in chemical combination with other elements.
Gold, silver, and copper are considered native elements because they occur in nature in their pure form. They are not chemically combined with any other elements and can be found in Earth's crust as metallic mineral deposits. This is in contrast to other elements, which are often found in nature in the form of compounds or minerals.

Native elements are those found by themselves, in pure form, uncombined with other elements into minerals. Of all the elements, only about thirty native elements are known, including metals like copper, gold, lead, and iron; semi-metals like antimony, arsenic, bismuth, and tellurium, and non-metals like diamond, sulfur, and selenium. --------- carbon
In the air we have nitrogen, oxygen, and many other rare gases which are all elements. In the ground we have gold which can be found in the ground as naturally uncombined metals.

Native elements.
These metals are very unreactive and are "noble". This basically means that they would not react with any other elements found in the earth's crust.
Radium is only found in trace amounts in uranium ore. It is not a stable element, so it cannot be found by itself like other elements (say, oxygen) can.
in its pure natural state uncombined with other elements, bromine is a LIQUID...

Because copper is considered an element, and because elements do not include other elements, copper only contains copper.
