    This is an excellent way to mine fairly AFK for a long period of time, and the metamorphic geode does provide some additional income over time, but it is highly dependent on luck and having the Refined perk. Alternatively, the player can use the Fortune perk to occasionally mine an extra ore. Stone spirit and ore prices fluctuate significantly on the Grand Exchange, so be sure to test prices before heavily investing in materials. For a close approximation of ore mined per hour (of pure mining) based on your levels and gear, see the mining rate calculator.

    Further profit could be achieved via the following means:

    • A grace of the elves allows Seren spirits to spawn, which reward the player with an item from the rare drop table. It can also be charged with signs of the porter to bank items. However, be aware that the grace of the elves has a high upfront cost as it becomes permanently untradeable once equipped for the first time.
    • Having a Luck of the Dwarves equipped allows the player to obtain the best drops from Seren spirits and also increases the chance of getting metamorphic geodes.
    • Tagga's corehammer gives the player +10% critical strike chance and +35 critical strike damage. It also has a 8.5% chance of producing deathspore arrow tips.

    Light and Dark animica are high level tier 90 ores, used to make Elder rune bars.

    Depending on the ore you are mining, it is either 1,464,900 for Light animica or 1,504,500 for Dark animica.

    When the hour begins, activate your Legendary quarrymaster aura, drink a sip of perfect juju mining potion, summon a lava titan, and if on legacy mode, use dragon battleaxe's special. You will want to find a world with two of the same rocks close to each other, so a rockertunity will spawn next to you. Click these for extra experience and more damage, meaning faster rocks. You can also 4 tick to keep your stamina up and mine faster.

    If you do not have Grace of the elves or signs of the porter, a bank and a furnace are reasonably close. An elder rune box can initially hold up to 100 ore, and level 95 Mining and completion of the Everything Is Oresome achievement each increase the capacity by 20, up to a total maximum of 140 ore. Igneous and metamorphic geodes have a chance to appear in your inventory, while metamorphic geodes are quite rare, you can expect between 0-5 (4-5 rare) for 1 hour of mining animica.

    If one were to use stone spirits, they would make 2,760,900 for light animica and 2,845,800 for dark animica.

    Profit could be further increased with a Tagga's corehammer as it gives the player +10% critical strike chance and +35 critical strike damage, and also has a 8.5% chance of producing deathspore arrow tips.
