[[File:Copper ore detail.png|left|100px|A detailed image of some copper ore.]]<br />
'''Copper ore''' is an [[ore]] which can be smelted in a [[furnace]] along with a piece of [[tin ore]] to create a [[bronze bar]]. Copper ore, along with tin ore, are the first ores a player can mine using the [[Mining]] skill, and requires level 1 [[Mining]].<br />
<br />
[[Copper rock]]s can be found in various [[Mining#Mine table|mines]] across ''[[RuneScape]]''. Mining a copper ore grants 17.5 [[Mining]] [[experience]] for each ore mined. You would need to mine 744,825 Copper Ore to increase from 1 to 99 Mining. Copper along with [[Tin]] is mainly used for [[smithing]] beginners. Many prefer completing the [[The Knights Sword]] quest, an easy [[F2P]] quest that grants 12,725 [[Smithing]] experience, enough experience to increase a player's level 1 [[smithing]] to level 29 smithing. Beginners mistake copper ore as the unrefined form of a "copper bar", this is not true, as copper ore can only become a bronze bar with a [[smithing]] level of 1 and a [[tin ore]]. If a player buys tin and copper ore from the [[Grand Exchange]] to make and sell a [[bronze bar]], they will make a profit of {{#expr:{{GEPrice|Bronze bar}} - {{GEPrice|Copper ore}} * 1 - {{GEPrice|Tin ore}} * 1}} coins.<br />
<br />
==Smithing==<br />
A player can smelt copper ore into a [[bronze bar]] through the [[Smithing]] skill by using it on a furnace along with a [[tin ore]], granting 6.25 [[Smithing]] [[experience]]; this requires level 1 [[Smithing]]. [[Bronze bars]] can then be used on [[Anvil]]s with a [[Hammer]] to create [[Bronze]] [[items]] (Some things may need more than 1 bar, such as a [[Battleaxe]]). Copper drops in the Al Kharid activity centre are common.<br />
