The correct option is D graphite
Elements are classified as metals and non-metals based on their properties. Metals possess various properties such as ductility, malleability, conductivity etc.
Here iron, aluminium, and silver are metals but graphite is non-metal and non-metals are non-malleable. So, graphite is non-malleable.

Hence, the correct option is $B$
