It is very hard and very expensive to remove the copper from that ore.
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.
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.
Copper can be oxidized using vinegar through a chemical reaction that occurs when the copper comes into contact with the acetic acid in the vinegar. This reaction causes the copper to lose electrons, resulting in the formation of copper oxide on the surface of the copper.
The world is running out of rich copper ores. Research is being carried out to find new ways to extract copper from the remaining low-grade ores, without harming the environment too much. This research is very important, as traditional mining involves huge open-cast mines that produce a lot of waste rock.Some plants absorb copper through their roots. As a result of this they concentrate these compounds as a result of this. The plants can be burned to produce an ash that contains the copper compounds. This process is known as photomining.
To turn copper blue using a chemical process, you can apply a solution of ammonia and water to the copper surface. This will create a blue-green patina on the copper over time.
The metal (copper) extracted may be generally brittle and break easily.

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)

=== === By the way I doubt very seriously your using copper pipes your using copper TUBING
