The [[Mining]] skill is used for Ores, Essence and gems. To start mining no requirements are needed.
==Training==
It is recommended to use {{ItemIcon|Gem Gloves}} while leveling. They will provide a stream of gems that you can sell for profit. Keep {{ItemIcon|Emerald|Emeralds}} for {{ItemIcon|Emerald Bolts}} and {{ItemIcon|Diamond|Diamonds}} for {{Icon|Diamond Luck Potion|Diamond Luck Potions}}.


=== Pickaxes ===
If you don't have money to buy {{ItemIcon|Gem Gloves}}, either sell {{ItemIcon|Mithril Ore}}, smelt and sell {{ItemIcon|Gold Bar|Gold Bars}}, or get money through the {{Skill|Fishing|notext=true}} [[Money Making##Fishing_.28Max_4.2C421k.2Fhr.29|Fishing money-making method]].
Upgrading your pickaxe should be done whenever you have the possibility to. The upgrades are available in the shop [https://wiki.melvoridle.com/index.php?title=Shop#Pickaxes Pickaxes].


=== Equipment ===
It is also recommended to use any [[Mastery#The Mastery Pool|Mastery Pool]] experience to increase the {{Icon|Mastery}} level of nodes that you're about to mine to level 30. The {{Icon|Mastery}} level of a node increases the [[Mining#Rock HP|Rock HP]], greatly reducing the waiting time for the node to respawn. Later, it is more beneficial to save the pool experience for the [[Mining#Mastery Pool Checkpoints|Mastery pool]] bonuses.


=== Gloves ===
Follow the list below. Mine {{ItemIcon|Copper Ore}} and {{ItemIcon|Tin Ore}} in approximately equal amounts for {{Skill|Smithing}}, and keep all {{ItemIcon|Coal Ore}} for the same reason.
Mining offers two alternative Gloves. Which can be found in the [https://wiki.melvoridle.com/index.php?title=Shop#Gloves Gloves shop].

We transition from {{ItemIcon|Mithril Ore|Mithril}} directly to {{ItemIcon|Runite Ore|Runite}} because otherwise we stretch the mastery thin across the ores, which leads to more ore-respawn downtime, resulting in slower progression.
