Introduction

Copper can be processed and sold as ingots. It is one of the first recommended runs for newer players as its payout can be increased with possession of a Worker's Protection License.

Starting the Run

Before starting this run, it is strongly recommended to check the price of copper for optimal profits and to follow the list below to make sure you have all the required equipment.

• A pickaxe (Purchased at gas stations/markets) Required for collecting copper
• Food & Water
• Bergen Backpack for space
• A vehicle to store the copper
• Copper processing license ($8,000 at the DMV)
• Head to the Copper Mine east of Kavala to fill your vehicle and optionally your backpack using left windows key in the copper mine area

Processing

• Head northwest of the copper mine to the copper processor to refine your goods into copper ingots.
• To process, scroll wheel on the processing machinery inside of the shed, you can either process from the vehicle or from your backpack and must remain 25m of the machine.
• Before pressing Process, it will give you the time required to process. Canceling processing will process items up to the progress you obtained.

Selling

• After finishing processing take your vehicle to the copper trader directly south of the copper processor.
• Scroll wheel on the copper trader to sell your copper ingots on your person, you will need to manually remove the ingots from the vehicle to sell.
• When finished selling go to any ATM the closest being in Neri south of the trader to store the money via scroll wheel or left windows key on the ATM.
