Salty crabletines are young salty crablets and despite being creatures, the crystal deposits on their backs serve as high level mining resources. Mining the deposits requires level 90 Mining and yields sea salt, an ingredient required in making arc gumbo. The salt may also be sold for 4 chimes each to Yi Yan, at the Salty Goods shop in the Waiko market. Ten salty crabletines can be found on the north-western shore of Cyclosis and seven can be found on North-Eastern Aminishi.

When mining a salty crabletine, it is "relaxed" and becomes stationary. Unlike the salty crablets found on Uncharted Isles, these young crablets do not deplete their supply of salt deposits, and allow for complete afk training, having to click only to prevent lobbying.

Experience rates

The player has a chance to harvest salt from the crabletine's back on average every four swings (less with critical swings). With level 99 Mining, salty crabletines give approximately 90,000 mining experience and 370 sea salt an hour. Utilizing some boosts (see below), experience rates hover around 105,000 experience and well over 420 sea salt can be obtained per hour.

Boosts

• Experience boosts such as the golden mining suit, Inspire Effort relic power, torstol incense sticks, Wisdom aura, Furnace perk, and decorated mining urns with an urn enhancer will all boost your experience rates. Well over 110,000 mining experience per hour can be obtained with a combination of these boosts.
• Mining boosts such as the Quarrymaster aura, Golem outfit, Honed perk, and the Asciatops perk (Ranch Out of Time) will all boost the amount of sea salt obtained per hour. 450-500 sea salt per hour can easily be obtained with a combination of these boosts.
• The effects of the Perfect juju mining potion and Juju mining potion will not activate from mining salty crablets.
• The mining cape's effect does not work with salty crablets.
