True.
In metallic bonding each metal atom donates an electron which becomes delocalised. These electrons ability to move means they can carry both charge and heat (from one area to another0 and therefore are both electrical and thermal conductors.
Well actually that's a lie the electrons don't carry heat they carry energy, and I don't claim to be an expert as to how thermal conduction works I just know it is to do with the fact that electrons can move.
