The method relies on the {{ItemIcon|Gem Gloves}} that increase the gems drop chance to 100% when mining anything but the {{ItemIcon|Rune Essence}}. The average value of a [[Mining#Gems|Gem]] is {{GP|381.25}}, while a single charge of the Gem Gloves costs only {{GP|250}}. Thus {{GP|131.25}} of profit is earned per mining action from gems.


With the {{UpgradeIcon|Dragon Pickaxe}} and {{MasteryReq|Adamantite Ore|50}}, you will get around {{GP|470000}} per hour.

The average value of a [[Mining#Gems|Gem]] is {{GP|{{#var: avggem}}}}, while a single charge of the Gem Gloves costs only {{GP|{{#var: glovegp}}}}.

Please note that this setup already includes the {{UpgradeIcon|Master of Nature}} which is unlocked after beating the {{ZoneIcon|Earth God Dungeon}}. This upgrade is quite essential to reach GP rates this high. Players at this point have probably already better money making methods at hand.
 
Without the {{UpgradeIcon|Master of Nature}} upgrade and only {{ItemIcon|Perfect Swing Potion III}} the GP rate already drops to {{GP|787000}}.<br>
A fully juiced setup with the {{ItemIcon|Dragonite Ore}} will give around {{GP|2000000}} per hour.
The calculation does not include any {{Skill|Astrology}} modifiers.

The results were calculated with the [[Spreadsheets_and_Theorycrafting#List_of_Spreadsheets|Melvor Idle Rate and Resource Calculator]] created by Kidbiz20#2026.
To check your own setup, do the following:
# Copy the spreadsheet to your Google Drive.
# On the Equipment tab, specify for Mining that you wear Gem Gloves.
# On the Mining tab, set Current Experience to unlock the ores, Ores masteries, and other things that you have.
# Specify any additional things in the sheet if you want to, like pets and so on.
# You should see your gains in the kGP/h column of the Mining tab.

This method is recommended to use if you play Adventure and there's no better money-making method at hand.

  1. Buy Gem Gloves,
  2. Mine Dragonite Ore or anything below it until you unlock it,
  3. Sell gems and ores that you got.


The method relies on the Gem Gloves that increase the gems drop chance to 100% when mining anything but the Rune Essence. The average value of a Gem is 383GP, while a single charge of the Gem Gloves costs only 225GP. Thus 158GP of profit is earned per mining action from gems.

A fully juiced setup with the Dragonite Ore will give around 2,000,000GP per hour.

Note that this setup already includes the Master of Nature which is unlocked after beating the Earth God Dungeon. This upgrade is quite essential to reach GP rates this high. Players at this point have probably already better money making methods at hand.
