We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the real distributions defined by a metallic pseudo-Riemannian structure to be integrable and geodesically invariant, in terms of associated tensor fields to the metallic structures and of adapted connections. In the integrable case, we prove a Chen-type inequality for these distributions and provide conditions for a metallic map to preserve these distributions. If the structure is metallic Norden, we describe the complex metallic distributions in the same spirit.
