Introducing The Mining Skill
Mining is a gathering skill that allows players to extract ores, essence, gems, and other resources from rocks throughout Arigon. The primary mining area is located north at ::Skillzone (;;sz works too). Extracted ores can be later used in the Smithing skill for smelting bars and crafting metal weapons and armour.
Players gain Mining experience by extracting ores from rocks, and as their Mining level increases, they can wield better pickaxes and mine more difficult ores such as adamantite and runite. These higher-level ores can sell for significant amounts of coins in the Grand Exchange.
