Copper (Fallout 4)

 is a miscellaneous item in Fallout 4.

Characteristics
Copper is a component used to make various items, including weapon modifications. According to wikipedia, copper can be defined as a chemical element with symbol Cu (from Latin: cuprum) and atomic number 29. It is a soft, malleable and ductile metal with very high thermal and electrical conductivity. A freshly exposed surface of pure copper has a reddish-orange colour. It is used as a conductor of heat and electricity, as a building material, and as a constituent of various metal alloys.

The metal and its alloys have been used for thousands of years. In the Roman era, copper was principally mined on Cyprus, the origin of the name of the metal from aes сyprium (metal of Cyprus), later corrupted to сuprum, from which the words copper (English), cuivre (French), Koper (Dutch) and Kupfer (German) are all derived.[3] Its compounds are commonly encountered as copper(II) salts, which often impart blue or green colours to minerals such as azurite, malachite and turquoise and have been widely used historically as pigments. Architectural structures built with copper corrode to give green verdigris (or patina). Decorative art prominently features copper, both by itself and in the form of pigments.

Production
Copper is used in the production of all generators, wires, and other power structures in your towns.
