How to Get Copper Ore

Copper Ores are mined from copper deposits located in the black forest biome. These deposits can be identified by their metallic streaks.

Copper deposits can be mined using pickaxes. The Antler Pickaxe, in particular, can be crafted early on after defeating Eikthyr.

Bait Troll Attacks

When you are able to find a Troll in the Black Forest biome, you can bait and evade its attacks on copper deposits. The Troll's attacks can break copper deposits for you to harvest them even before beating the first boss Eikthyr.

If you don't mind using cheats to obtain it, Copper Ore can easily be spawned with the console command.
