Copper Ore

Copper ore is a mineral block found underground.

Deepslate copper ore is the deepslate variant of copper ore.

Natural generation
Copper ore can be generated anywhere on the Overworld in the form of veins. In the Java Edition, copper ore tries to generate 6 times per chunk in groups from zero to sixteen, in layers 0 to 96, being more common in layers 47 and 48 and less common at the ends. Copper ore can replace stone, granite, diorite, andesite, tuff and deepslate. Copper ore rarely replaces deepslate and tuff, generating within deepslate and tuff areas of layers 0 to 16. When it is replaced, it becomes the deepslate copper ore.

Breaking
Copper ore must be mined with a stone pickaxe or higher, or else it drops nothing.

Breaking copper ore drops 2-3 raw copper, unless mined with a Silk Touch pickaxe. It is affected by Fortune enchantment, dropping up to 12 raw copper with Fortune III.

Usage
The primary usage of copper ore is to obtain copper ingots. Nine copper ingots can be crafted into copper blocks. Copper ore does not weather like its block counterpart, though the ore itself shows some oxidization.
