Most metals found in nature are in an oxidized state, but you still get minerals and trace metals from food as plants convert them to bio-available forms.
 Expose metallic odixes to hydrochloric acid and what do ya get?  Metal salts?
 Acid rain?  Nitric acid from lightning?

If the body didn't closely regulate copper and many other metals, we'd all be dead.
