Arizona is nicknamed “The Copper State” because of the great deposits of copper that NATURE has placed here. If Arizona was a country, it would be the second-largest producer of copper in the entire world. Only Chile produces more copper than Arizona. The star on the Arizona state flag is copper-colored because the red metal is so important to the state’s economy.
