Activated Copper is a valuable resource found in worlds with specified conditions in No Man's Sky.

Compared to regular Copper, Activated Copper is activated because of the environment of the planet it is found on. This activation makes it much more valuable than its normal counterpart.

There are multiple planets that can host Activated Copper and they will more than likely be found in the same areas. This is due to the specific conditions required for it to be on that planet.

Only worlds that orbit a yellow star will have Activated Copper. The material cannot be found in any other world in No Man's Sky. This makes it easier to pinpoint where to go to gather some.

In addition to the planets it can be found on, Starship Outfitting Terminals may hold some of the resources. Players can go to them and salvage many different items, with a chance of there being some Activated Copper.

Once on a planet that is orbiting a yellow sun, a scan can be done to see if the world in fact holds any of the valuable material. Here is how to search for it in the right conditions:
