Copper is found in the earth's crust and the oceans although the amount in the latter is thought to be negligible, amounting to no more than about eight months mine production at present-day rates. The upper 10 kilometers of the crust is thought to contain an average of about 33 ppm of copper.

The copper is purified to 99.99% by electrolysis. The production route described above shows the progression from a rock containing about 0.2% copper to a copper cathode of 99.99% purity. Leaching. Leaching offers an alternative to copper mining. First, the ore is treated with dilute sulphuric acid.

Copper extraction refers to the methods used to obtain copper from its ores.The conversion of copper consists of a series of physical and electrochemical processes. Methods have evolved and vary with country depending on the ore source, local environmental regulations, and other factors.. As in all mining operations, the ore must usually be beneficiated (concentrated).
