Deepslate Copper Ore
Deepslate Copper Ore — block.
Obtaining
Mine the block with a suitable pickaxe to obtain raw copper, or use Silk Touch when the deepslate variant itself is needed for a build. The block uses the same copper-ore family as its stone-hosted counterpart, which keeps catalog and search links together.

The block is mineable with a pickaxe and requires a stone-tier tool or better. Silk Touch preserves the block; without it, the validated loot table produces raw copper and applies Fortune and explosion-decay rules.
| Hardness | 4.5 |

| Blast resistance | 3 |
| Tool | PickaxeTool |
| Silk Touch | Deepslate copper ore block |
| Normal drop | 2–5 raw copper before Fortune |
| Fortune | Increases the raw-copper yield |
| Explosion decay | Normal drops can be reduced by an explosion |
Natural generation
Deepslate copper ore is the deep-rock member of the copper-ore family. It appears where a copper vein uses deepslate as its host, so the same resource keeps the darker stone texture instead of becoming a separate metal.
| Host rock | Deepslate |
|---|---|
| Ore family | Copper ore and deepslate copper ore |
| Generation role | Deep variant of an underground copper vein |
Usage
The block occupies a standard full volume and is shown with an isometric preview.
Raw copper from the block can be smelted or blasted into a copper ingot. Both recipes use the `copper_ingot` group and award 0.7 experience, so the two furnace routes have the same result while the blast furnace route is the faster processing path.
