minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•11 months agoWhat do you think copper ore looks like? What tools would you use? Ancient mining was a punishment, generally a death sentence. It’s hard work often overseen by a slave master. Copper ore isn’t concentrated copper either a lot of ore goes into a little copper. There’s a reason only the really wealthy had copper items.
