Answer:

cyprium

Explanation:

Copper's Latin name was 'cyprium', which itself comes from 'kypros', the Greek name for Cyprus. The island of Cyprus was famous centuries ago for its copper reserves. The name was eventually simplified to 'cuprum', and this eventually morphed into the English version, copper.
