Where to find Copper Ore in LEGO Fortnite

Before you can make Copper Bars, you'll have to find a lot of other LEGO Fortnite resources, including Copper Ore. To accomplish this, go to the desert biome and explore the caves there. The entrances to them are under large stones, so you can easily find them.

However, both in the biome and in the caves, the temperature is very high. Therefore, you will need equipment with heat resistance, such as the Cold-Headed Charm. Alternatively, you can have Snow Berries or Snowberry Milkshake to withstand the heat.

Also, to mine Copper Ore in LEGO Fortnite, you need a Rare Pickaxe. It is crafted from 3 Flexwood Rods and 3 Sand Claws. You may have to spend some time collecting these resources before starting your quest to find some Copper Ore.

Finally, after completing all the preparations, head to the caves in the desert biome. Then, find Copper Ore deposits and mine as many as possible. Trust us, you will need a lot of Copper for future creations.
