Make copper ore drop "copper chunks" or similar.

Instead of dropping the ore itself, having it drop chunks of copper would allow fortune to be used on the ore. This would fix the issue of copper being far too expensive for a building block while keeping it consistent with the behavior of other ores.

    I like this idea, but I think it should be the first ore that drops in clumps however it still has to be smelted. I think it should drop about 3-4 chunks and then you smelt them in a furnace for a shorter timer per chunk. Normally smelting/cooking something would take 8 seconds, but I think it should take 6-7 seconds in a normal furnace and in a blast furnace that would be 2-3 seconds. This would decrease the amount of time waiting for the small chunks to smelt while still having to wait awhile for all the chunks to smelt.
