=== Mining to Runecrafting & Smithing ===
This method opens up the option to train {{Skill|Smithing}} and {{Skill|Runecrafting}} after {{Skill|Mining}} training has been completed. The key here is to get {{GP|500000}} to purchase {{ItemIcon|Gem Gloves}} to provide a steady source of [[Mining#Gems|gems]] and therefore passive income while Mining. Some sort of [[Money Making]] method is advised to fund the initial purchase of gloves. If in need of money, the gems gained from using {{ItemIcon|Gem Gloves}} can be sold to fund the repurchase of gloves, however note that it is recommended to at least keep any {{ItemIcon|Diamond|Diamonds}} as they are useful in the late game for {{ItemIcon|Diamond Luck Potion IV|notext=true}} [[Diamond Luck Potion|Diamond Luck potions]].
