Rune Essence mine

The Rune essence mine, available to both free players and members, is the only place that players may mine for Rune essence or Pure essence, both of which are used in the Runecrafting skill. Players must complete the Rune Mysteries quest in order to access the mine.

Accessing the mine
There are a number of NPCs located around RuneScape that will teleport the player to the mine, after completion of the Rune Mysteries quest. Players can either talk to these NPCs and ask to go to the mine, or right click the NPC and click the "Teleport" option to go directly to the mine.

Free-to-Play

 * Aubury - Located in Varrock, immediately south of the east bank. This is the most popular spot to teleport to the mine, as this location is the shortest walk away from a bank in free-to-play worlds.


 * Sedridor - Located in the basement of the Wizards' Tower. This location is not recommended as it is a long walk to a bank from here.

Members

 * Wizard Cromperty - Located in East Ardougne, northeast of the marketplace.


 * Wizard Distentor - Located in the Magic Guild in Yanille. This location is preferred by many players due to its close distance from a bank, although level 66 or higher Magic is required to enter the guild.


 * Gnome Wizard Brimstail - Located in a cave west of the bridge in the Tree Gnome Stronghold. This location is not recommended as it is a long way to a bank from here.

Features
The mine features four large essence outcrops that the player can mine from. Note that unlike other types of mining rocks in the game, multiple players can mine from the same essence rock at the same time, and a single click will fill the player's inventory with essence. There are also four teleports located around the rocks that will teleport the player out of the mine.

There are two types of essence that can be mined here from any of the essence rocks:

Rune Essence
Free players, or members with less than level 30 mining, will mine Rune essence. Rune essence can be used with the Runecrafting skill to craft elemental runes (air, water, earth, and fire), Mind runes, and Body runes.

Pure Essence
Paying members with a mining level of 30 or higher will start mining Pure Essence from the mines. Pure essence can be used to craft any type of rune available with the Runecrafting skill.
