Due to mettalic bonding between positive metal ions and dellocalized electrons that form a mettalic crystal within the metal.
Also the property of mallability ie strike it with a hammer and it changes shape but still holds its rigidity is due to the positive metal ions sliding past each other.
Dellocalized electrons also explain most of metals conductivity properties.
