It is neither.

Colloid: This is a type of mixture in which one substance is dispersed evenly throughout another, it does not settle out, it is stable though not a homogenous (true) solution.

Suspension: a heterogeneous fluid containing solid particles that are sufficiently large for sedimentation.

This distinguishes a suspension from a colloid, in which the suspended particles are smaller and do not settle.

Colloids and suspensions are different from solutions, in which the dissolved substance (solute) does not exist as a solid, and solvent and solute are homogeneously mixed.
