And yeah, I'm well aware of the fact that when I'm at the DM seat, I can have anything have any property.
The thing is, I recall there being some Arms and Equipment guide with a few examples and some splatbooks as well.
i got one of my boxes out to read some of the brown books, if i find anything i will let you know, then maybe later this week i will bo through all the blue and green books if i have that much time to read.
odds are the magic items type books would have the most "materials" in them as they have weird names for everything and many are based on animal, vegetable, or mineral.
probably S&P, Tome of Magic, red steel campaign setting would have special materials. red steel had something that affected blood and caused mutations. also planescape and spelljammer could have thrown god knows what for "alien" or extra-planetary materials.
Play the game, not the rules.

Anything blue gets associated with ice in lots of games, but that's not even trying.
Cobalt is an ore named after goblins that releases toxic fumes when smelted, containing a secret metal that eluded discovery for centuries. That sounds like something someone would make up for a high-level crafting material in a video game, but it's real:
Wikipedia wrote:Miners had long used the name kobold ore (German for goblin ore) for some of the blue-pigment producing minerals; they were named because they were poor in known metals and gave poisonous arsenic-containing fumes upon smelting. In 1735, such ores were found to be reducible to a new metal (the first discovered since ancient times), and this was ultimately named for the kobold.
Edit: They're copper ores, by the by. Copper ores tend to be blue or green. Oxidation, yo.

He jumps like a damned dragoon, and charges into battle fighting rather insane monsters with little more than his bare hands and rather nasty spell effects conjured up solely through knowledge and the local plantlife. He unerringly knows where his goal lies, he breathes underwater and is untroubled by space travel, seems to have no limits to his actual endurance and favors killing his enemies by driving both boots square into their skull. His agility is unmatched, and his strength legendary, able to fling about a turtle shell big enough to contain a man with enough force to barrel down a near endless path of unfortunates.
