Copper Ore is a raw material you can collect anywhere in the Dune: Awakening tutorial area. Players can later transform it into a Copper Ingot that is used in a plethora of recipes, facilitating exploration and battles in general.

How To Get Copper Ore In Dune: Awakening

To get Copper Ore in Dune: Awakening, you can search anywhere in the Hagga Basin South area in Arrakis. It's a dark-colored rock with blue veins and can be found almost everywhere, including enemy camps.

You will need a Cutteray to destroy the big ores or the nodes found stuck to the side of hills and mountains. The one you get from the tutorial is perfect for the job, but if you wish to craft a more advanced Cutteray to get more Copper Ore, then that's possible as well.

Unlocking the map fully by using the Survey Probe Launcher will help players navigate Hagga Basin South by marking points of interest on the map. If you open the map and zoom in to the max, you can find a rock icon indicating Copper Ore or mark the enemy camps to search their chests for some Copper.
