On my server 10 copper ore sells for about 1g in AH, so you'd be better off making an alt and mining in the canyons around Orgrimmar and making 5g/hr that way.  Iron or another metal might be even better; haven't checked.

You can't do this ad infinitum. A single person can flood the copper market, driving its value down. I can't say "Oh look, blindweed is selling for 7g a stack, cha-ching!" because I can pick 4 stacks of blindweed in an hour. That would be 28g/hr! Unfortunately, you can only sell one or two stacks at that price per day. So farming it more than once every two days leads to diminishing returns.

The problem is that darn thing called the supply and demand curve... ;)
