A stone pickaxe or better. Anything weaker breaks it with no drop.

How do I get an Exposed Copper Grate?

Craft it from Exposed Copper (or Exposed Cut Copper) in a 2x2 pattern for 4 grates, stonecut it 1:1, or let an unoxidized grate weather naturally.

No. Like other copper grates, it does not transmit redstone power.

Can I stop it from oxidizing further?

Yes, apply honeycomb to wax it and lock it at the exposed stage permanently.
