Editor:
精誠所加 is less common than 精誠所至 but it's not wrong according to this dictionary:

精誠所至,金石為開 ... 也作「精誠所加,金石為虧」、「精誠所加,金石為開」
https://pedia.cloud.edu.tw/Entry/Detail/?title=%E7%B2%BE%E8%AA%A0%E6%89%80%E8%87%B3%EF%BC%8C%E9%87%91%E7%9F%B3%E7%82%BA%E9%96%8B

What's obviously wrong is "metal and metal", which should be "metal and stone".
