Before you begin, it is a good idea to check the market value of copper using the market tab on your “Y” menu to make sure nobody has sold copper recently to maximize your profits. It is also recommended to stop by the DMV and purchase a “copper processing license” as it is a prerequisite for processing the ore into ingots for sale. It is also necessary to take a pickaxe, which can be purchased at any market or gas station, as well as 3 [[Virtual Items|items]] of food and water to sustain yourself for the duration of the run. You will want to begin this venture by retrieving your vehicle of choice from the truck shop south-west of Kavala. From there it will be a decent drive out to the Copper Mine, which is located east of Kavala where you will gather copper ore. Upon arrival, you will position yourself close to the copper mine icon on the map as within its proximity is the harvesting zone where you will be able to use your windows key to harvest the ore. The mine itself is definitely “off the beaten path” so you will not have to worry about concealing your vehicle.
