Hey, so ive been struggling alot with finding copper... Ive been walking around for days without finding any surface copper and after painstakingly panning for enough so i can craft a prospecting tool and pickaxe i thought i could finally find some ore to mine. but after checking out a giant area and almost using up my whole prospecting tool i still cant seem to be able to find anything. my only hit was poor with 2% for native copper. Am i doing something wrong? could it be something with the biome im in? Im surrounded mostly by limestone with some limestone desert close by. Or maybe its some mods messing with something? Im really greatful for any tips:) And maybe eaven some commands to spawn copper to at least kickstart my further search? Im really not in the mood to pan copper for another prospecting tool...
