Copper Ore

Copper Ore is a malleable, soft metal which is easy to obtain in nature in a directly usable metallic form to create basic tools. It is the first metal ore to be smelted, creating copper, and the first ore to be purposefully alloyed with another metal, tin, to create bronze. Copper ore combined with charcoal creates copper. While copper ore has a green cast to it, smelted copper has an orange tint.

The discovery of copper smelting technology initiates the Copper Age.
