Copper ore
Look for green stains on the rock. It stays pretty close to the granite.
Where to find it#
On the surface, copper boulders are mostly on the high ground, about one boulder in 6 up there, and only one in 25 down low. About one seam in 5 up there is copper, and abandoned mines can have some round them. There's also a small copper boulder a short walk northeast of the camp fire.
Underground, copper comes in the quartz veins along the faults. The closer a vein runs to a granite dome the more copper there is. Within about 45 m of the middle of the dome the veins have a lot of it, and once you get past 100 m it's mostly gone. You can find it on every level.
Some copper also turns up in the marble next to the granite on levels 3 to 7, along with the iron.
How much you get#
A boulder gives you 2 copper ore and 1 stone, and a stone from a rich seam gives 8. In the mine you get 1 to 3 per cell.
Which level#
You can find it on levels 1 to 10, and level 7 has the most.
| Level 1 | |
| Level 2 | |
| Level 3 | |
| Level 4 | |
| Level 5 | |
| Level 6 | |
| Level 7 | |
| Level 8 | |
| Level 9 | |
| Level 10 |
This is how much each level has across the whole map, compared to the best one.
What it's for#
- Nothing uses copper yet, but it's worth hanging on to.
