Answer:

Metallic structure

Step-by-step explanation:

They have a high melting point due to the strong forces of attraction between the positive ions (cations) and the delocalised electrons. Moreover, they conduct electricity due to the sea of delocalised electrons.

[Extra: It could be an ionic compound since they also have a high melting point, however they only conduct electricity in liquid or aqeouus state.]
