Pay-to-play Mining training
This guide describes the most effective pay-to-play methods to train the Mining skill. Mining is a gathering skill which typically involves collecting ores from different types of ore rock; ore rocks are often found in groups at mining sites. Players can also occasionally obtain uncut gems and geodes while mining. A pickaxe is required when mining. …
Mining
Mining is a gathering skill that allows players to extract ores, gems, rune essence, geodes, and other resources from rocks throughout RuneScape. Mined ores can be smelted at a furnace, turning them into bars that can be made into metal objects using the Smithing skill, Construction skill, or Crafting skill. Gems and geodes can be cut utilising the Crafting skill.
