Could extreme temperatures have anything to do with keeping the original red color of copper? For instance, copper piping in a home. If i remember correctly, copper pipe that had hot water running through it kept it's original red color much longer than the copper piping that had cold water running through it. The cold water piping seemed to turn brown very quickly where as the hot water pipe maintained a red color for quite sometime.
