    Today, copper is one of the cheapest materials available, and, one of the most useful. that is why i wish to make copper out of other things, as mining will yield a halt to activities eventually. it would also be cheaper to make copper inside a vat and then cut it up, i figure, so why not give it a try?

    Copper is a metal that is light and soft. if we were to observe where copper comes from, it obviously comes from rocks mixed with biomass to form this soft metal. this would be where the rocks supply the body and biomass supplies the 'bending bits' of the substance. this means we need to take 'sand' and mix it with 'sewerage' at a high temperature to form copper.

    Copper is not one of the cheapest materials available. It's about $2.50 per pound (aluminum is worth $0.40 a pound, and iron about $.06 per pound).

    Copper is an element. It's not made of rocks, some rocks are made of copper compounds (meaning copper combined with other elements).

    Please, please stop posting things that you HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO KNOWLEDGE ABOUT.

    Well, i thought that rock is less of a conductor than metals, and, that the rocks, in the form of sand, would be held together by the 'sewerage.' this could reach the boiling points of each, and then mixing them. think of sand held together by biomass?

    Is the above from a random message generator? It makes absolutely no sense. Copper is not made of rocks and biomass. Copper is made of copper. Copper is an element that has 29 protons, 29 electrons, and 35 neutrons. It cannot be made by combining rocks and sewage. Please stop being such an idiot. Read some more about chemistry.
