Cu-63 Information
Copper is a red-brown transition element. It was known by the Romans as 'cuprum'. This element was extracted and used for thousands of years. Copper is a malleable, ductile and an excellent conductor of heat and electricity. When in moist conditions, a greenish layer forms on the outside of it. Copper has 29 isotopes. 2 of them are stable, 1 of which is naturally occurring.
Copper is most often used as an electrical conductor. Also this element is used in the manufacture of water pipes. Its alloys are used in jewelry and for coins.
