The Lost Metal may refer to [[atium]] or [[lerasium]], possibly even [[harmonium]] (ettmetal) or [[trellium]].{{cite}}
 
When Kelsier destroyed the [[Pits of Hathsin]], it was stated that the atium geodes would grow back in 300 years time, which may further contribute to atium being ''the lost metal''. Additionally, while at a party Waxillium Ladrian sees each metal in a glass case with a label. Atium's case is empty with the plaque saying "Atium, the lost metal."
 
Ettmetal powers many [[southern Scadrian]] technologies and has much potential to be discovered in this area. But it only appeared after the [[Catacendre]] and is not known to the northern Scadrial until the events of [[the Bands of Mourning]]. This means it is probably not "lost" but "new".
 
Trellium is the metal that created [[Paalm]]'s or [[Hemalurgy#Hemalurgic Constructs|Chimera]]s' single spike. Miles' last words also mentions the "bearer of final metal" and that he worships Trell. But since [[Harmony]] doesn't know it, it may not be a "lost" metal but a "new" metal.
