I don't understand what it means to "null edit" a page from the list. What effect will it have on the supposed pages themselves (or the template) that uses the picture? What action is being performed? I know that "null" means literally no value, even less than a zero or a blank value, but I don't understand it here.

Unfortunately, I've noticed the issue for a few other files recently, but didn't bother listing them because if it something I can fix, I can do it on the others. I made similar corrections for files like and pages/templates that used to display it, but Special:WhatLinksHere removed those pages instantly. So, if MassNullEdit is the right tool to solve these issues, I'd like to understand it more.

Oddly enough, the "Copper ore" page is no longer in that list and I haven't really done anything since before my post. Just to test further, I purged the "Tin ore", "Coal", and "Silver" pages and will leave them alone for a while to see if it is some long cache issue.
