Hate to break the bad news but that metal you have performs less than half as well as Aluminium and Aquarter of the performance of Pure Copper

If anyone wants any other constants, this book has just about everything.

Also, if you need any properties of materials explaining, I'm a 3rd year Metallurgy and Science of Materials student.
