Question Chemi-Pure - anything other than expensive carbon?

I treated a tank with copper and after many water changes a new snail quickly died. My first thought was that there was still copper in there somewhere -- maybe absorbed into the mopani wood? -- so I started searching the Internet for information on removing copper. The only thing I came up with was Chemi-Pure. Yesterday I cleaned the filter and replaced the plain old carbon with the bag of Chemi-Pure and it looks like I just put in more of the same. Is Chemi-Pure any different from "regular" filter carbon in any way other than price? I dont see any difference in appearance when look through the sealed bag. There are lots of claims on the jar but nothing that says what is actually in there.
