Clay Mining

Clay Mining

If you have never heard of Clay Mining before, then wait until you hear about the MASSIVE PAYOUT this method can bring you!

Clay Mining is ridiculously simple. All you have to do is have a pick axe. It doesn't matter if you just came off tutorial island, or if you're a seasoned Runescape player, this method is designed for anyone level Runescape player. Having a higher mining level definitely helps though.

Basically what you do in Clay Mining is:

You head to your local mine with clay in it, mine it, and sell the clay at the Grand Exchange! Sound simple right? Well thats because it is! And here's the best part: Each clay piece, which takes only a second to mine, and can be mined by any level miner, can be sold for more than 160 GP a piece!

Best place to do this:

You should only have a pickaxe equipped on you, and have nothing in your inventory and nothing else equipped but that pickaxe. Head on over to the mine south west of Varrok. There you will find a few rocks that contain Clay.

I'm there, now what?:

Now mine clay until your inventory is full. Each clay should take 1-3 seconds to mine depending on your mining level. If you have 20+ mining, you will get the clay as soon as you click on the rock. Mine the clay until you have filled your inventory up with clay. Now go north and head into the Grand Exchange or Varrok West bank and bank all of your clay pieces.

After the first batch:

Now that you finished banking your first inventory of clay, head back to the mine and repeat the previous step.

Lets pull up the profits chart to see what amount of clay will translate into what amount of cha-ching!

Amount of Clay x Price Each = Total Value

100 x 82 = 8200gp

500 x 82 = 41000gp

1200 x 82 = 100,000 GP!!

Alright, so we see from the good 'ole profits chart there, once you have 1200 Clay, you will have 100,000GP if you go ahead and sell it at the Grand Exchange for 82 GP. This process usually takes 1-2 hours.

You can do 50 runs of full inventory mining and banking in an hour. That means you can mine (27 clays x 50 runs) 1350 clays per hour if you are diligent. You only need 1200 to reach your first 100k.

Also, having mining that is above level 20 can greatly decrease the amount of time it takes to mine the clay!

So once you have about 1200 clays you are already up to 100k and ready to move on to the next section! You have the choice to sell the Clay to make your 100k, or you can save the clay and use it for the next section to make 400k!

This is one of the most recommended method as a way for you to make your first 100k. The alternate is Obtaining Anti-Dragon Shields, which you can find on the 1gp-100k methods page.
