__TOC__
==Equipment==
The only item required to mine is a pickaxe. A certain attack level is required to wield one, but players are still able to use the pickaxe to mine without the Attack level requirement. Players should use the best pickaxe available for the fastest mining speed.
 
Using an infernal pickaxe will give a 1/3 chance for the ore to automatically combust, which will consume the ore. This reduces the number of ores that need to be dropped, and also grants some passive Smithing experience. Making an infernal pickaxe requires level 85 Smithing, and it can be charged with dragon pickaxes or smouldering stones. This effect can apply to all standard ores, sandstone, red sandstone, and Zalcano tephra. <b>NOTE:</b> Red sandstone and Tephra products will not be destroyed.
 
The crystal pickaxe has the fastest mining speed, and it should be used if the player has enough crystal shards for it.

==Red Sandstone==
===Prospector kit===
[[File:115px-Red sandstone detail.webp|50px]] [[Red sandstone]] is the product of mining red sandstone rocks with Mining level 81. It can be made into robust glass by using the robust glass machine or the Superglass Make spell. Robust glass is then used to create 6 dose potion flasks. Players can mine a daily limit of sandstone depending on their [[Donator benefits|donator rank]]. See [[Donator benefits]] page for details on daily limit. See the [[Red Sandstone]] article for more details.
The [[Prospector kit]] obtained from [[Prospector Percy's Nugget Shop|Prospector Percy]] in the [[Lava Flow Mine]] provides a total of 4% bonus Mining experience when worn as well as a additional chance to not deplete the resource while mining.

Mining Mining is a skill that allows players to obtain ores and gems from rocks. The higher a player's Mining level is the more likely they are to successfully extract ore. With ores, a player can then either smelt bars and make equipment using the Smithing skill or sell them for profit.

Equipment

The only item required to mine is a pickaxe. A certain attack level is required to wield one, but players are still able to use the pickaxe to mine without the Attack level requirement. Players should use the best pickaxe available for the fastest mining speed.

Using an infernal pickaxe will give a 1/3 chance for the ore to automatically combust, which will consume the ore. This reduces the number of ores that need to be dropped, and also grants some passive Smithing experience. Making an infernal pickaxe requires level 85 Smithing, and it can be charged with dragon pickaxes or smouldering stones. This effect can apply to all standard ores, sandstone, red sandstone, and Zalcano tephra. NOTE: Red sandstone and Tephra products will not be destroyed.

The crystal pickaxe has the fastest mining speed, and it should be used if the player has enough crystal shards for it.
