    Copper is not a key product because it is a natural resource rather than a finished product. Petroleum, fishing, forestry, and tourism are all industries that involve the extraction, production, or promotion of specific products or services. Copper, on the other hand, is a mineral that is extracted from the earth and then processed into various forms for use in different industries. It is not considered a key product in the same way as the other options listed.
