Powermining granite and sandstone!

I think this place would still work, if you mine 3, drop 3, like you would in the chasm mine. Take 25 full waterskins, and wear a glory when you go there. Find the spot with 3 granite rocks, mine 3, drop 3, etc. Everytime you run out of water, just glory back to Al Kharid, and start again. I got to 85 mining before the hidden update, luckily, but I think it would still be good exp.

 

 

 

(I dropped whole inventories btw)

I got about 50k an hour, if I was really paying attention.

One idea is to get a 5-10 waterskins, go mine an inventory, then GO INTO ENAHKRAS TEMPLE AND DROP, then go out and mine more.

 

 

 

No waterdrain while dropping.

I just used this method 58-60 mining. Still works.

 

 

 

Fill inventory with filled Waterskins, but leave one spot open. Equip Desert Boots, Shirt and Bottom, Pickaxe and Camulet. Rub Camulet and leave to the desert.

 

 

 

Now mine, drop, mine, drop all the time. When the waterskins run out (I managed on an average 5000 exp per Waterskin on 59 mining), just Homeport. Fill Waterskins. And repeat.

Well sence the new update, I need to keep water skins. But I donno how to fill them. I tried verrock fountains, but, "nothing interesting happens."

 

 

 

You need to fill them from a bucket/bowl/you get the idea.

 

 

 

Also there is a fountain in the tunnels under the quarry

A player who just became 99 mining used noted waterskins which he sold in general store of nearby camp. and bought them back...

 

This costs a little extra, but you do not need to be on lunar like you would need to be for humidify spell.

unlike the h8ers I found this guide pretty useful. I mean lots of people know where to mine, but just not the best place in the quarry.

 

 

 

Also, I belive there was a hidden update that made it so you get damage when mining there, BUT if you use full desert clothes, I think you will be able to full heal (healing 1 hp every minute) before you get a lot of damage done to you.

Hey, I may have quite Runescape, but I just bought an XBOX 360 and play way to much COD4 with the Gamertag Lava Mage

I tried this the other day - great exp, took just 12 waterskins with me plus desert robes and lasted almost 2 hours before I had to tele out. Worth it imo, and with a camulet you can get back in no time :)

The guide was correct when written - last year. If you read the replies people have said this before. Jagex brought out a small update that meant you need to take more than one waterskin with you, it still works very well for mining exp.

There was a hidden update about 4 months ago that meant you now need waterskins while in the quarry. this makes it amazing ly annoying as you have to refil your waterskin every inv or so. luckily i got 85 mining about a week before this update.

 

 

 

Use the humidify spell from lunar spell book to refill your waterskins. That way you can stay in the mine as long as you want =D>

so, i only need 1 waterskin pouch?

 

 

 

Way to bump a really old topic; but to answer your question...

 

 

 

You can use either

 

 

 

A) Bring Waterskins (13-25)

 

a) Teleport when empty.

 

B) Humidify when empty.

 

B) Enchanted Water Tiara

 

 

 

Hope I helped.
