I think brass can but im not sure about other metals. When i was a kid them surf green roofs you see on some old buildings in cities used to fascinate me, i only learnt years later they were copper that had oxidised.

I always wonder what those buildings must have looked like new, with the shiny copper roofs. They must have been blinding on a sunny day.
