About
Copper Ore is found underground in Minecraft, typically in the deep slate layer. Breaking it with a stone pickaxe or better drops raw copper, which you can smelt into copper ingots for use in crafting and redstone builds.
To give a player copper ore directly, use /give @p minecraft:copper_ore 1. The ore itself does not stack in inventory, so each block takes a separate slot. If you need multiple copies for building or terraforming, issue the give command multiple times or adjust the quantity parameter.
