Besides, copper was very early found to be changed into an even more valuable substance when mixed with a small portion of tin or other metals. Thus it came about that just after the discovery of this earliest metal in its simpler compounds, mankind entered upon what is known as the Copper Age, and, later, the Bronze Age, which periods in development followed upon the earliest Stone Age, that in which man's best tools and weapons were made of polished stone. 140 THE METALLIC ELEMENTS Copper is ...red, and is very flexible, though not in its pure form elastic. Its specific gravity is 8. 9, atomic weight, 63. 1. Excepting silver and gold, it is the best conductor of electricity. Although it tarnishes slightly in air, a compound is thus formed on the surface which protects the metal from fur- ther action. It is readily beaten into sheets or drawn into wire. When copper is heated and plunged into water, it becomes not stiffened, but more malleable. Its name is derived from tjhe Latin, Cyprium aes, which meant Cyprium brass.
