Innovating Science™ Small Group Learning: Formation Of A Native Copper Deposit
In this activity, students will create specific environment conditions and examine the formation of native copper deposits over several days.
Supplier: Aldon Corporation IS8701SGL
Description
While copper is typically extracted from copper-containing mineral ores that must be treated and refined to obtain the pure metal, copper also exists in nature in its native elemental form. This is the rarest and most valuable form of copper as it is the easiest to process to obtain pure metal.
