Hi!What is the simple method of extracting copper?Thanks!

Answer:

commercially copper is produced by electrolysis the ore is converted to a soluble copper compound and fed into an electrolytic cell the serious advantage to this is that the copper produced is of very high purity, 99.9+% since copper is used mostly for electrical wiring this purity is essential for low resistance
