Copper
Refined Stellar Metal: Yellow 41 
Copper is a raw material in No Man's Sky. A chromatic metal, generated by fusion in the heart of a star. Such stellar material ends up forming deposits in the crust of local planets. Copper is found on planets orbiting yellow stars, and can be placed in a Refiner to create purified Chromatic Metal for use in the manufacture of advanced technologies. To craft it, combine Copper x1, Chromatic Metal x1 in a Refiner.
