Mine locations
For non-members without 40 Crafting, gold ore can be time consuming to mine and bank. However, two rocks can be found in the Rimmington mining site with a Bank deposit box nearby, in the Rimmington Customs Office.
Members with 80 Mining should consider mining concentrated gold rocks in the Living Rock Caverns. However, aggressive, high level (92+) living rock creatures may attack players. It is advisable to wear armour within the caverns, or equipment which makes the creatures unaggressive, such as a golem outfit or Shark outfit. Farli's camp near the exit of the cave has a pulley lift that acts as a deposit box. The official world for mining concentrated gold is world 84.

Respawn rate
Gold ore, like all other mined rocks, respawns at a rate inversely proportional to the number of people in the rock's RuneScape world. If the world is empty, the ore respawns in 2 minutes; if it is full (with 2000 players), it respawns in 1 minute. Thus the respawn rate of gold ore is
- minutes,
where x is the number of players in the world.
A table of respawn rates is given below.
Players | 0 | 200 | 400 | 600 | 800 | 1000 | 1200 | 1400 | 1600 | 1800 | 2000 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Respawn time | 2:00 | 1:54 | 1:48 | 1:42 | 1:36 | 1:30 | 1:24 | 1:18 | 1:12 | 1:06 | 1:00 |
