Introducing The Mining Skill
Mining is a gathering skill that allows players to extract ores, essence, gems, and other resources from rocks throughout Arigon. Extracted ores can be later used in the Smithing skill for smelting bars and crafting metal weapons and armour.
Pickaxes
Bronze through Dragon pickaxes can be bought at the Skilling Store. Gilded dragon through Primal pickaxes are made Salvaging Upgrader. The Dragon pickaxe can also be claimed 1 time by completing the Skill pass for mining 100 Red sandstone.
Pickaxe | Mining Level | Attack Level | Cost |
---|---|---|---|
Infernal adze | 50 | Chop 500 Burnt Logs |
Ores
The primary mining area is located north at ::Skillzone (;;sz works too).
Mining Sites
Mining site at ::SZ
This site provides 13 ore options, ranging from clay to Primal. Talk to the Snowman miner to change what ore will be mined from the Infinity rocks. Note that the Snowman may throw snow at you, this will cancel the action and you will have to click the rock to continue mining.
Mining site at ::DZ
This site provides 6 ore options: Gem, Iron, Coal, Mithril, Adamite, and Runite. The added advantage here is that the Snowman isn't here to interrupt your skilling.
Burnt ore
After the Corpse Cleaner quest, you can mine Burnt ore. You mine this ore along the walls of the Mage Bank arena, like in the quest.
Extra features
Skill of The Hour
Changing every hour, the Skill of The Hour grants an experience boost of 25% ecumenically in a designated skill.
Pool of Prosperity
The Pool of Prosperity is an object in the game located at home. When filled, it grants an experience boost of 10% to all players for its duration.
Shooting Star
Every hour a shooting star will appear which players can mine. This will disappear quickly, so if you're interested in mining it make sure you get there as soon as you see the notification. If you manage to mine the star in time, you can trade the stardust in once the star has been mined for some good cash or for gem bags.
