Copper ore can be refined into Copper in a Smelter.
This can be further processed at a Forge with Tin to yield Bronze.
Availability[]
It can be mined from Copper deposits which can be found in Black Forest biomes using any Pickaxe. Such deposits have subtle bronze-colored streaks that reflect the sunlight. It is the only visual feature that distinguishes them from typical stone boulders.
Copper deposits are generated in a large size which extends down into the ground, so digging deep underneath the surface is necessary to fully extract a single deposit.
Notes[]
- A way of farming Copper is to dig the earth all around the deposit until it crumbles on itself into Copper ores.
- Like other metals, Copper ore cannot be teleported.
- The attacks of a Troll, despite being harmless to normal terrain, cause immense damage to copper ore. If the player has no pickaxe or simply yearns for a change from their usual monotonous mining method, a troll can make for a great alternative.
