in this sentence does he mean airplane by metal flight?

Answer

You can create compound nouns with "flight", e.g. capital flight.  The idea is that something e.g. money, precious metal disappears quickly from a particular place because of changes in economic conditions. It is similar to "escape".

The sentence has major mistakes and has not been written by a native speaker and so I am doing my best.

Answer

Because "para" fly away! have you ever noticed it?

Answer

I also think it must be something like gold but then what is the connection with flight?

Answer

Scientst Tait Robert explained that the minerals were very important strategic goods, as the government tried to control its extraction in centerilzed empires. Hansen V. told that ... In II BC the diplomatic abd trade relations were managed from Han dynasty to Eurasia.

Answer

Hi, the sentence doesn't really make sense.. could you check it again against the original. Unlikely to have anything to do with a plane if it relates to the Roman Empire. 'Precious metals' are gold, silver etc.
