Copper (aka industrial grade copper) is a common and widely used metal.
Production
Mineral Deposits
Copper ore generates commonly underground. Copper ore clusters are a more rare version of the ore, which drop copper crystals when mined.
Malachite stratum have a vast amount of malachite, which can be melted into copper ingots using crucible.

Foundry Processing
Ore can be melted in a crucible into 2 ingots of molten copper and a stone byproduct.
Malachite can be combined with 
flux to produce molten copper.

Copper powder is also a secondary product of the centrifuging of 
cobalt.
