(1) Cu is determined by the difference between the impurity total
and 100%. (2) Cu value includes Ag.
(3) In troy ounce: Min = 8, Max = 0and Nom = 0
Note: This is a high conductivity copper which has,
in the annealed condition a minimum conductivityof
100% IACS except for Alloy C10100 which has a minimum
conductivity of 101% IACS.
