A '''Mithril bar''' is a bar of refined [[mithril ore]]. It can be created from level 50 [[Smithing]] skill by using a [[furnace]] or the [[Superheat Item]] spell with 1 [[mithril ore]] and 4 pieces of [[coal]], providing 30 experience. A mithril bar can be smithed on an [[anvil]] by using the Smithing skill to create [[mithril weapons]] and [[mithril armour|armour]], granting 50 Smithing experience per bar. A list of mithril items that can be smithed from mithril bars and the Smithing levels required can be found at [[Smithing/Smithing tables#Mithril|Smithing/Smithing tables]].

A '''mithril bar''' is a [[bar]] of metal, refined through the [[Smithing]] skill by combining 1 [[mithril ore]] and 4 pieces of [[coal]] in a furnace, or by casting the [[Superheat Item]] spell. Smelting a bar of mithril requires level 50 Smithing, granting 30 Smithing experience.

Mithril ore can be mined at level 55 [[Mining]], while the coal can be mined at level 30 Mining.
Normally it costs {{#expr:{{GEPrice|Coal|n}} * 4 + {{GEPrice|Mithril ore|n}}}} to smelt one bar using materials bought off the Grand Exchange. You can make {{#expr:{{GEPrice|Mithril bar|n}} - ({{GEPrice|Coal|n}} * 4 + {{GEPrice|Mithril ore|n}})}} coins each at current market price, {{#expr:{{GEPrice|Mithril bar|n}} - ({{GEPrice|Coal|n}} * 2 + {{GEPrice|Mithril ore|n}})}} coins if using the [[Blast Furnace]], {{#expr:{{GEPrice|Mithril bar|n}} - ({{GEPrice|Coal|n}} * 4 + {{GEPrice|Mithril ore|n}} + {{GEPrice|Nature rune|n}})}} coins if using Superheat Item, assuming a [[Staff of fire]] or equivalent is equipped. This is a fairly efficient way of making money for all players, as mithril can be mined in free-to-play.

===Blast Furnace===
Members may opt for smelting Mithril bars at the [[Keldagrim]] [[Blast Furnace]] rather than a normal furnace or Superheat Item due to the Blast Furnace only needing 2 pieces of coal per mithril ore. Though this option means more mithril bars can be smelted per inventory, it is much further from the bank than some normal furnaces in [[Al Kharid]], [[Falador]] and [[Edgeville]]. This can be counteracted by using the bank in the [[Grand Exchange]], and requires a usage fee if a player's smithing level is under 60. It is possible to smith up to 18 mithril bars in one trip using the Blast Furnace, coupled with a full [[coal bag]], 9 coal in your inventory and 18 mithril ores. (27 (in bag) + 9 = 36 coal + 18 mithril ore = 54 spaces in total) This would be the absolute limit, as this is the max amount you can carry at one time while using a coal bag. However, you can bring any amount of noted coal and mithril ore along with a sufficient amount of coins, and un-note the ores for a small fee by using them on the dwarfs working around the blast furnace. This makes it possible to smelt any amount of mithril with the only restriction being the bars that go into inventory. These can be smithed into weapons and armour on the anvils, and alched. The other option is to bank the bars in Keldagrim or Grand Exchange.

Mithril bar detail

A mithril bar is a bar of metal, refined through the Smithing skill by combining 1 mithril ore and 4 pieces of coal in a furnace, or by casting the Superheat Item spell. Smelting a bar of mithril requires level 50 Smithing, granting 30 Smithing experience.

Mithril ore can be mined at level 55 Mining, while the coal can be mined at level 30 Mining.

A mithril bar can be smithed, creating mithril weapons and armour at an anvil granting 50 Smithing experience per bar consumed. A list of mithril items that can be smithed from mithril bars and the Smithing levels required can be found at Smithing/Smithing tables.

Blast Furnace

Members may opt for smelting Mithril bars at the Keldagrim Blast Furnace rather than a normal furnace or Superheat Item due to the Blast Furnace only needing 2 pieces of coal per mithril ore. Though this option means more mithril bars can be smelted per inventory, it is much further from the bank than some normal furnaces in Al Kharid, Falador and Edgeville. This can be counteracted by using the bank in the Grand Exchange, and requires a usage fee if a player's Smithing level is under 60.

It is possible to smith up to 21 mithril bars in one trip using the Blast Furnace, coupled with a filled coal bag, 3 coal, and 21 mithril ores in the player's inventory. However, players may bring any amount of noted coal and mithril ore along with a sufficient amount of coins, and un-note the ores for a small fee by using them on the dwarfs working around the blast furnace. This makes it possible to smelt any amount of mithril with the only restriction being the bars that go into inventory. These bars can be banked nearby, or smithed into weapons and armour on a nearby anvil and alchemised with one of the Alchemy spells.

Cost analysis

It currently costs 645 coins to smelt one bar using materials bought off the Grand Exchange. The current profit for smelting one bar is 37 coins by normal smelting, 261 coins if using the Blast Furnace, and −368 coins if using Superheat Item with a staff of fire (or equivalent) equipped.
