Yes, metals are usually obtained from ores in the ground. But a few metals may be found in their 'native' state. Silver, platinum, tin, and even iron (rarely).

And magnesium is comonly refined from sea water.

BUT some iron - nickel meteorites do descend from the sky - but probably were part of a previous planet.
