Editing Copper

[[File:AllCopper.png|250px|thumb|Copper blocks and copper ore (floor and walls), raw copper (center dropped item), and copper ingots (left and right dropped items).]]
'''Copper''' is a material found in the [[Overworld]]. It spawns naturally in copper ore, which drops raw copper, which can then be smelted into copper ingots.

== Items ==
* {{ItemLink|Copper Ingot}} - an [[item]] created by smelting raw copper or killing [[drowned]].
* {{ItemLink|Raw Copper}} - an item dropped from mining copper ore.
* {{ItemLink|Spyglass}} - an item crafted with copper ingots and an [[amethyst shard]] that can be used to zoom in on distant objects.
* {{ItemLink|Brush}} - a tool crafted with a [[stick]], a  copper ingot and a [[feather]]. It can be used to brush [[suspicious block]]s and can be used to brush [[armadillo]]s for [[armadillo scute]]s.

== Blocks ==
Copper blocks [[oxidize]] over time, gaining a verdigris appearance over four stages. They can be prevented from oxidizing by being waxed with [[honeycomb]]s, and returned to previous oxidation stages using an axe.

* {{BlockLink|Block of Raw Copper}} − a [[block]] used for compact raw copper storage.
* {{BlockLink|Copper Ore}} - an ore that can be found underground.
* {{BlockLink|Deepslate Copper Ore}} - the [[deepslate]] variant of copper ore.
* {{BlockLink|Lightning Rod}} - a block used to divert [[lightning]] strikes.
* {{BlockLink|Copper|link=Copper (element)}} - an element {{in|ee|be}}.

== Structures ==
* {{EnvLink|Trial Chambers}} - [[Overworld]] underground [[structure]]s made out of [[waxed blocks of copper]] and their [[Oxidation|oxidize]]d variants, containing combat challenges in form of [[trial spawner]]s.

== Oxidization ==
Copper will oxidized over time (about once every 20 minutes). Before it goes to the next stage of oxidization it will check if there are any blocks of copper around it with lower levels of oxidization. If there is it will wait another 20 minutes before oxidizing. You can revert oxidization with an [[Axe|{{ItemSprite|Axe}}Axe]] or you can pause the oxidization with {{ItemSprite|Honeycomb}}[[Honeycomb]] which will award you with the achievement [[Wax On]].

However, as a [[Copper Bulb]] oxidizes its light level will drop. You can do the same as the copper blocks and use Honeycomb or an axe to alter its oxidization.
