When measured by a [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_spectrometer spectroscope] while being heated, [[trellium]] appears to emit a full spectrum of light at the same intensity as if it is a pure white color, except in the red frequencies where the readings jump above the maximum.{{book ref|mb7|13}} [[Waxillium Ladrian]] notes that this is a physical impossibility and [[harmonium]] is the only other time he has seen anything similar, suggesting that it is an identifiable trait of God Metals.{{book ref|mb7|13}} It is unknown what determines the color where the reading will spike for an individual God Metal, and whether hybrid metals have one spike or several. This bears some resemblance to the impossible rainbows that form when the light given off by one of the [[Lights#Physical Properties|Rosharan Lights]] is split by a prism.{{book ref|sa4|65}}
If a Shard is [[Splinter]]ed, God Metals that existed before will remain unaffected.{{wob ref|12055}} Change of Shard's Vessel may over time cause properties of its God Metal to change.{{wob ref|16588}} As name of the God Metal is usually derived by adding suffix "-ium" to the Vessel's name, people might start calling the metal by a new name to reflect the new Vessel.{{wob ref|2554}}{{wob ref|14874}}
God metals have interactions of some kind with both [[fabrial]]s and [[Aether spores]], just like normal metals.{{wob ref|16243}}

=== Lerasium ===
:''Main article:'' [[Lerasium]]
=== Raysium ===
:''Main article:'' [[Raysium]]
Raysium is the God Metal of [[Odium]]. Raysium can naturally conduct Investiture
=== Trellium ===
=== The Dor ===
The [[Dor]] is the remnant of [[Devotion]] and [[Dominion]]'s combined powers after the Shards themselves were Splintered.{{wob ref|2787}}{{wob ref|1533}} There is a God Metal that comes from the Dor.{{wob ref|13354}}
== Anti-God Metals ==
Physical matter is known to have a counterpart called [[Wikipedia: antimatter| antimatter]] - matter composed of antiparticles that share many properties with the particles of ordinary matter, but manifest some of them in an opposite way (e.g. a proton and an antiproton have the same mass, but opposite electric charges and magnetic moments). Raboniel describes this in terms of axi with opposite polarities.{{book ref|sa4|97}} A similar relationship exists between Investiture and anti-Investiture in the cosmere.
An Allomancer ingesting anti-God Metals will die.{{wob ref|16236}}
