Thickness of copper layer on DMM masters

For no other reason than curiosity, does anyone have a spec for the micron thickness of the copper layer on a DMM blank.

Apologies if this has been posted before, I had a quick skim and couldn't find anything.

There’s a bit of variation in it. Best ask Marion at TZO Or RI.

Cheers Misjah, had hoped it might be a widely known figure but will check with TKO.

Was hoping it was always exactly the same but can vary (slightly) between blanks in same batch even.
