Mining Power
Mining Power improves your chance to successfully mine a rock; it's separate from your Mining level. Sources:
Pickaxe (equipped tool, required to mine):
- Copper Pickaxe: +1
- Bronze Pickaxe: +4
- Iron Pickaxe: +12
- Steel Pickaxe: +25
- Dwarven Pickaxe: +50 (tied for best)
- Mithril Pickaxe: +50 (tied for best)
Armor:
- Mining Boots: +5 (dropped by Skeleton Miner)
- Mining Gloves: +15 (craftable at Smithing 21: 2x Steel Plate, 2x Steel Bar, 2x Rough Leather)
Power Gems (socketed into jewellery; a ring and an amulet each have their own gem socket, so both can be filled at once):
- Mining Power Gem: +5 (0.1% drop from Gold/Volcanic Gold rocks)
- Strong Mining Power Gem: +10 (members-only, untradeable; drops from Ebony rocks, see the table above)
Stacking the best of everything (pickaxe + gloves + boots + a Strong Mining Power Gem in both the ring and amulet slots) gives 50 + 15 + 5 + 10 + 10 = 90 Mining Power.
There's also a Mining Potion, but it boosts Mining level (+5 for 600s), not Mining Power - a different stat.
