Copper is one of the few metals that have been mined for more than 100 decades globally. According to M.G.C Wilson (1989) copper has been mined since the early 3000 BC in Cyprus. In the ancient times copper was used for making tools‚ weapons‚ ornaments and many household utensils. Copper is the third most widely used metal after aluminium (Al) and iron (Fe) because of its high durability (Doebrich et.al‚2009). In the Southern African region copper has been extracted by the early inhabitants long
