No...Copper sulfate in crystal form will dissolve in water/sweat at very low temps and can sometimes be an irritant to skin.
Copper Sulphate usually is found in a hydrated form (i.e., water molecules are incorporated into the crystals.) Pure copper sulphate is a pale, greenish gray color. The familiar blue color only occurs in hydrates of copper sulphate (i.e., in crystals that incorporate H20 molecules). Heating the blue crystals can drive off the water. It's still called copper sulphate after you do that. For substances like copper sulphate that naturally attract water, the adjective, anhydrous often is used to describe the pure (water free) state. If you heat copper sulphate to a temperature of 650C, it will decompose into something else. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copper_sulphate
copper (II) oxide
You need to start with a copper compound and react it with an acid to get the salt you want. If you use hydrochloric acid you will get a chloride; if you use nitric acid you will get a nitrate. You asked for copper sulphate so can you decide for yourself which acid you need? You will need to put this in a conical flask and heat it - if you're heating acids you must wear protective goggles - and add some copper oxide. This is black. It will react and form a blue solution. You need to be sure you have used up all your acid so you must use enough copper oxide to have some left over. Stop heating and filter it to get rid of the rest of the copper oxide. You want to get rid of the water now - if you want to be quick you can evaporate it by placing it in an evaporating basin on top of a beaker of boiling water. If you have time you can just leave it to evaporate slowly at room temperature. If you do it this way you will get nicer, bigger crystals. Why do you think this is? Look carefully at your crystals to see what shape they are.
885x140=123900grams of copper sulphate per hour. If you are talking about using 885 gm of copper sulphate per ton of ore in the solution then the density of the copper sulphate(penta hydrate now because it's in water) is 2.284 gm per cm3 so that's 2.284x5=11.42gm per liter of solution, so 123900/11.42=10849.387 liters of copper sulphate(pentahydrate) per hour, NOTE:this is only how much copper sulphate is being used total in the solution which is 30% of the total liters used of solution because 25% of the water is inside the copper sulphate, the other 70% is just water. If you want the liters per hour of solution total, it is 34964.62 litres per hour of your 5% solution. I hope this was what you were looking for, I saw noone had answered and decided to try and get you what you needed.
Copper sulfate was used as a catalyst for the amalgamation of silver. We haven't now any other motivation to mix copper sulfate with mercury.
by crystallisation, we can get pure copper sulphate crystals

used as a herbicide, fungicide and pesticide. Also to test blood for anaemia and usually at schools used to make crystals

Sulfuric acid is used to make copper sulphate.
the copper sulphate i used at room temperature was blue.
Copper sulphate obtained from the pharmacy can be used on cuts. Other sources of copper sulfate, such as root removing compounds cannot be used on the skin because they contain other substances. Copper sulphate can help to kill pathogens that cause infection.
Fe
anhydrous copper sulphate is white. when water is added it turns blue, in essence it can be used to detect the presence of water. hope this helps!!!!!!!!!!!
copper (II) oxide
for electroplating or wood presevative
No, at one point it was used as an emetic, but it was later discovered that copper sulphate is quite toxic to humans.
