heat the copper up with some carbon because carbon has a higher reactivty level so the oxygen will grab on to the carbon and become (Co2).
(CuO+C) heat =(Cu+Co2)
Another technique is know as copper leaching (see related link)
Ore is dug out and then trucked to a copper place. It is then crushed mixed with chemicals its then made into various products.
Copper extraction from its ores involves a series of processes. First the ore must usually be concentrated. Then it must be roasted to convert sulfides to oxides, which are smelted to produce matte. Finally, it undergoes various refining processes, the final one being electrolytic. The main ore in use today is chalcopyrite (CuFeS2), which accounts for about 50% of copper production.
I know the following ores of copper Chalcopyrite, Copper Glance, Chlcocite, Malachite, Cuprite

Copper was discovered by ancient potters whose furnaces were hot enough to produce copper from the ore malachite
Ore is rock from which a metal or valuable mineral can be extracted. Iron ore, copper ore are two examples.
Iron is extracted from iron ore. Copper is extracted from several ores, Chalcopyrite being one.
Iron is metal that can be extracted from ore there is also titanium aluminum copper and others

Copper was one of the first metals to be discovered, possibly by anchient potters whose furnaces were hot enough to produce copper from the ore malachite.
The metal (copper) extracted may be generally brittle and break easily.
Smelting is the process which ore goes through so that a metal can be extracted from it. It involves heating the rock to very high temperatures. Copper, for instance, can be extracted at temperatures of about 1200 °C.Actually, smelting is a process when a metal which is more reactive than copper needs to be extracted. For example, zinc is more reactive than copper so it has to be extracted smelting. It can be extracted by heating its ore with charcoal aka smelting.--different person
Strip-mining is the most common method for removing copper ore from the ground. See related questions and links to learn more about strip mining.

An ore is a rock or mineral from which a valuable metal can be obtained through refining processes.
