Adamantite ore



Adamantite ore is a type of ore that can be obtained through the Mining skill in various places throughout RuneScape. It can be smelted with 6 heaps of coal through the Smithing skill to form an adamantite bar, which can then be smithed into various types of adamant weapons and armour.

Adamantite ore can be mined with a Mining level of 70 or higher, granting 95 Mining experience. After being mined, an adamantite rock takes an average of 7 minutes to respawn.

Locations
Adamantite rocks can be found in many mines, including:


 * Jatizso Mine (members only) - 11 rocks
 * Hobgoblin Mine - 8 rocks
 * Dwarven Mine - 3 rocks
 * Crandor - 3 rocks
 * Al-Kharid Mine - 2 rocks
 * Edgeville Dungeon - 2 rocks
 * Lumbridge Swamp Southwest Mine - 2 rocks
 * Grand Tree (members only) - 3 rocks
 * Heroes' Guild Mine (members only) - 2 rocks

 * Isafdar (members only) - 7 rocks
 * Abandoned Mine (members only) - 13 rocks
 * Tai Bwo Wannai (members only) - 2 rocks

The Hobgoblin Mine contains the most free-to-play adamantite rocks, but it is far from a bank, filled with aggressive Hobgoblins, and dangerous since it is in the wilderness. However, with the "Canoe" update, the mine has become more convenient. The Lava Titan familiar, with a requirement of 83 summoning, allows players to teleport to the Lava maze, after which it only takes a few seconds to reach the mine. Hobgoblins will not keep you from mining, but you will still undergo attack from them. Revenants make this even harder because they can kill players who are unprepared or unlucky. The next best way to mine adamantite ore would be to go to one of the other mines and switch worlds as you mine the rocks.

The lowest level of the Abandoned Mine has 13 adamant ore veins, but requires retracing the steps of the Haunted Mine quest to get the glowing fungus. The fungus can be safely dropped while mining to free an inventory slot. The Jatizso Members mine is also a good place to mine as there are 11 rocks, however there are ice trolls to worry about, they are decently high levels and the males can hit 17, and the females can throw rocks over the rocks you are mining.

The Isafdar mine is only a decent Adamant mining spot once you have completed Roving Elves and started Mourning's Ends Part I since you will be able to bank at Lletya which is a small run away. The mine is small, only containing the 7 Adamant rocks and is completely unguarded except for a small trap at the entrance.
