PLAT307 Type_2 Test for isolated metal atoms
This test reports on metal atoms that are not bonded or at coordination distance of other atoms. Isolated ions are very unusual (or non-existent?) NOTE: Isolated metal atoms may be an artifact when their environment is part of the SQUEEZED density. Metal clusters may invoke this ALERT. It is not always clear, based on default geometrical radii, to properly distinguish bonds from contacts.
