Hi! I've always mined and therefore I feel the need to spread the word to others!

1-15 :: Banking Copper ores
Where: South-East of Varrock
How many: 138
Cash you will gain (approx): 14k
Time it will take: 40-45 minutes
15-41 :: Banking Iron ores
Where: South-East of Varrock or South-West of Varrock
How many: 1108
Cash you will gain (approx): 230k
Time it will take: 13 hours
41-99 :: Powermining Iron ores
== I suggest you buy a rune pickaxe first ==
Where: North of Al Kharid
How many: 371.237
Cash you will gain (approx): None, as you drop your ores.
Time it will take: 482 hours (averaging 27k/hour)
SHORT POWERMINING GUIDE
- Firstly, find a world with 1800+ people so your ores respawn quickly enough.
- Find a so-called 'corner-spot'. This is a spot with 2 rocks, so your account only has to turn to reach for the next rock.
- Mine an iron ore.
- Mine another one, and while your account swings its pick at the rock, you right click on the first ore you mined and keep your mouse at 'drop'. When you've finished mining your second ore, click. The first ore will be dropped. Repeat and repeat and repeat.
- When a 'spot-stealer' arrives, someone who tries to get in the corner spot that you found, keep spam-clicking the rocks. You might mine the ore in one hit, but this has to do with your internet connection too. If you fail to succeed, try another place or world.

Where: South-East of Varrock or South-West of Varrock
How many: 1108
Cash you will gain (approx): 230k

41-60 :: Powermining Iron ores
== I suggest you buy a rune pickaxe first ==
Where: Dwarven Mine
How many: 6645
Cash you will gain (approx): None as you drop the ores OR 1.4M when you have 15 dung (you can then bank your ores in the deposit of the secret entrance nearby)
Time it will take: 9 hours (10-11 if you bank them too - it's worth it though!)
60-77 :: Powermining Granite
Where: Quarry, South of Al Kharid
How many: - (Lots. This is variable though.)
Cash you will gain (approx): None as you drop the ores. You might want to bank your 5kg granite though each time you go back to the bank for more waterskins, since they're worth 1.7k each. More information below.
Time it will take: 30 hours (40k xp/hour) - 33 with banking 5k granite
SHORT DESERT MINING GUIDE
There are 2 ways to do this:
1. (recommended) - Have an enchanted water tiara, so you don't need any waterskins. You will be less likely to go back all the way to Al Kharid, though, to bank your 5kg granite ores. It is faster exp, because you don't have to leave the mine and you have more inventory space. You need to have finished the quest 'Dealing with Scarabas' to be able to have this.
2. Buy 24x waterskin (3) from the guy at the Shantay Pass. Also bring a few k (like 10k) and wear full desert robes with at least a rune pickaxe. (you need 5gp for the Shantay pass too) Use the carpet person to go to the bandit camp. Walk south, and you will see the quarry. Just powermine like you did when powermining iron ores. When you've used a waterskin until it's empty, drop it if you want to take granite to the bank and keep it if you don't. When all your waterskins are empty, either teleport to Lummy and walk back to Al Kharid and buy more, or walk east to Pollnivneach. In the general store you can buy a few buckets and refill your waterskins at the well. Go back to the quarry and repeat.
77 - 80 :: Mine Coal at the Coal Deposits
== Hop to World 84 for this ==
Where: Living Rock Caverns (Dwarven Mine. Go through the mining guild and walk west. You will son walk into a wall. Go south. You will see a rope. Climb down.
How many: 10.210
Cash you will gain: 2.6M
Time it will take: 25-30 hours (20-25k xp/hour)
80 - 99 :: Mine Gold at the Gold Deposits
Where Living Rock Caverns. ^
How many: 169.795
Cash you will gain: 43M
Time it will take: 246 hours (45k xp/hour)
END
I hope this has been enough information for you! If you have anything you'd like to see improved or added, feel free to add me IRS 'La_Becca' and tell me! I'm always in BloodsEdge cc so you could also try to meet me there.

I'm not a fan of mining but you make it look it easier to level
