Mining cape

A Mining cape can be purchased for 99,000 coins from a dwarf at the Mining Guild entrance by players who have achieved level 99 Mining. It is the Cape of Accomplishment, also commonly called a skill cape, for the Mining skill. Mining capes are greyish-brown in colour, have the mining image, and have a light blue trim if the player has more than one level 99 skill. The Mining cape is considered one of the most difficult skillcapes to achieve and is the 6th most uncommon skillcape.

Trivia

 * When first released it was possible for a player to buy a Mining cape even if they did not have 99 Mining. Although it is said that the players with the Mining capes below 99 have them removed, this is not true as a couple of accounts still have them. However, you cannot equip them, and trying to will give you the message "You need level 99 Mining to equip this item."
 * The pickaxe a player uses while doing the emote is a Rune pickaxe.
 * The number of players who have achieved 99 mining has increased substantially since the living rock caverns update. This is because mining now requires substantially less work than it previously did and generates more profit.
 * On 25 May 2010 the Mining Cape emote was changed, the animation is smoother and the pickaxe used has been changed from steel to rune.
