The metal (copper) extracted may be generally brittle and break easily.
It is very hard and very expensive to remove the copper from that ore.
Using low-grade ore as a copper source can be problematic because it requires more energy and resources to extract the copper from the ore. This leads to increased environmental impact and higher costs of production compared to using higher-grade ore. Additionally, the extraction process may produce more waste and emissions, impacting local ecosystems and communities.
The metal (copper) extracted may be generally brittle and break easily.
Low-grade ores contain lower concentrations of copper, which means more material needs to be processed to extract the same amount of copper compared to high-grade ores. This can result in higher production costs, energy consumption, and environmental impact.
It's poor quality and not all the copper can be extraxted from it
orange/red tubing is requried to bend itCopper has a bendable grade see see the CDA drawn and annealed called HARD and soft copper

To produce electromagnetic power using copper, you will need copper wire, a magnet, and a power source. When a magnet is moved through a coil of copper wire, it induces an electric current in the wire due to electromagnetic induction, generating electrical power.
my teacher asked me to analyze my problem before answering it
Copper is leached out using acid or bacteria. The solution containing Cu2+ ions is treated with scrap or H2 to recover copper. Cu2+(aq) + Fe(s) ---------> Cu(s) + Fe2+(aq) Cu2+(aq) + H2(g) ---------> Cu(s) + 2H+(aq)
Hydrometallurgy is used for the processing of copper.Example: Leaching of copper oxide ores using a solution containing sulphuric acid. The Copper can then be recovered from solution using solvent extraction and electrowinning.
=== === By the way I doubt very seriously your using copper pipes your using copper TUBING
