Respawn rate
Copper rock, like all other mined rocks, respawns at a rate directly proportional to the number of people in the rock's RuneScape world. If the world is empty, the ore respawns in 4 seconds; if it is full (with 2000 players), it respawns in 2 seconds. Thus the respawn rate of copper ore is
 * $$4-\frac{x}{1000}$$ seconds,

where x is the number of players in the world.

A table of respawn rates is given below.

It is worthwhile to note that copper rocks have the same respawn rate as Tin rocks.
