Plaster of Paris, metal, and wax are among the cast-forming sculptural materials routinely involved in bronze production in particular. The term may also refer to the amount of homogenous molten metal resulting from a single pour. In industrial and building trade contexts, prefer "castings." ]]></dc:description></metadata>
