[jerry Frost]

Thanks for the rabbit hole link Bruce, lots of interesting reading after
providing specific information related to this thread. I'd certainly trust
them before I trusted my memory.

Here's a source that's more than I care to read right now:
https://www.copper.org/publications/newsletters/innovations/1997/12/wiremeta
llurgy.html

Wikipedia says electrical copper is >=99.90% pure.  FWTW.

AFAIK, beryllium is used only in alloys of copper used for tools.  I could
be wrong.
