Concentrated gold rocks



Concentrated gold rocks can only be found in the Living Rock Caverns located north of the Dwarven Mine. They require a Mining level of 80 to mine ore from them and give 65 experience per ore mined. There are only 4 concentrated gold rocks in the game; they are in the northwest, northeast, southwest, and southeast corners of the cavern.

Concentrated gold rocks will give 1-3 gold ores at a time. If wearing Varrock armour, multiple ores will be mined even more frequently displaying the message "Your Varrock armour allows you to mine an additional ore", and "you manage to mine two (or three) gold ores!" when mined on your own. Gems cannot be obtained from this type of rock. Unlike all other rocks these do not run out of ore, and instead they are collapsed by the stomping and fist pounding of the living rock creatures.



Concentrated gold rocks are decent experience, at about 50-60k experience per hour, and can be a money making method for high level players because the rocks are very close to a deposit box. However the most notable feature for the avid use of this location is that this type of mining requires substantially less clicking than the constant attention necessary for normal mining

Note: This is a dangerous area as all of the monsters are above level 120 and are aggressive.

Trivia

 * It appears that the more people who are mining the rocks, the less often they will collapse.
