It does take a lot of energy to extract copper ores from the ground.
Sometimes these efforts can be in vein as as little as 0.4% of copper can be found and 96.6% is just waste material.
Also, locating copper in the ground can be costly. Then there is the process of digging it up and transporting the ore to places where it can be purified, which is a process which will also cost a lot.
Finally transporting the copper from the extraction site to the purification site and then to it's final destination will be expensive.
However it is important to mention that copper is NOT the most expensive metal to obtain, due to it not being very radioactive.

Extracting it from the ground.
The newest method is bioleaching.
The method of extracting copper from an ore using electricity is called electrolysis. In this process, an electric current is passed through a solution containing copper ions from the ore, causing the copper to be deposited onto the cathode.

Copper recycling is to get copper from copper contained materials by ways such as extracting, separating, etc.. This is a resource-saving and environment-friendly method for us.
