Metallurgy / Copper
#8
Hi Aitor.
There seems to be a misunderstaning about the term 'solid'.
Reduced copper is not solid copper. Solid copper is naturally pure copper. And the reduced copper has, due to its impurities, the characteristica of 'brass'.

Is almost only found in america, extremely rare in Europe. Solid copper is of a purity, which is only comparable to modern industrial copper.
