#NASA is sending a mission to #16Psyche :

"16 Psyche is the largest M class asteroid, so called for high metal content. It was discovered in the mid-19th century in the solar system’s main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It orbits the sun in about five years, while rotating once every four hours."

There is some discussion in the article about the absurdly high total value of the metals in the asteroid.
