abstract = {It is well known that the prolongation of an almost complex structure from a manifold    M to the tangent bundle of order    r on    M is also an almost complex structure if it is integrable. The general quadratic structure        F    2    =  α  F  +  β  I is a generalization of an almost complex structure where    α  =  0  ,    β  =  −  1. The purpose of this paper is to characterize a metallic structure defined by the general quadratic structure        F    2    =  α  F  +  β  I  ,    α  ,  β  ∈      N  , where        N   is the set of natural numbers. We show that the    r-lift of the metallic structure    F in the tangent bundle of order    r is also a metallic structure. Furthermore, we deduce a theorem on the projection tensor in the tangent bundle of order    r. Moreover, prolongations of    G-structures immersed in the metallic structure to the tangent bundle of order    r and 2 are discussed. Finally, we construct examples of metallic structures that admit an almost para contact structure on the tangent bundle of order 3 and 4.}
