About Copper Metal Light Turnings
Copper metal possesses a reddish lustrous appearance that turns green on exposure to moist
air. It has no odor, is malleable, and is insoluble in Water at ambient conditions. It is an essential
component of the natural ecosystem involving rocks, animals, plants, water, and volcanic
dust/gases. It can be easily machined, extruded, or drawn into shapes and forms two series of
salts, Cu(I) and Cu(II), with other compounds. On a commercial scale, 80% of its production
is obtained by electrolysis of low-grade or poor Sulfide ores, which are usually treated by
pyrometallurgical methods involving series of stages. In the United States of America (USA),
Lab Alley sells its high-quality Copper Metal, Light Turnings online at laballey.com. Lab
Alley’s Copper Metal, Light Turnings are highly recommended for research labs and
commercial applications.
