Copper Ore as an ingredient
Copper Ore is smelted into Copper Bars at a forge, requiring a mining skill of 1 or more.
Copper Bars are used in the production of many items, including Bronze Bars.
Copper Ore can be prospected (consuming 5 ore) with a Jewelcrafting skill of 20 or more, resulting in:
- [Tigerseye] (53%)
- [Malachite] (47%)
- [Shadowgem] (10%)
On average, slightly more than one gem is recovered per 5 ore consumed.
