'''Mining''' is one of the ten [[Dragonwilds:Skills]] in ''RuneScape: Dragonwilds'' and allows players to use pickaxes to extract ores, minerals, and gems from various sources. Players can then use these resources in conjunction create [[Dragonwilds:Armour]] and [[Dragonwilds:Weapons]], [[Dragonwilds:Buildings/Mechanics|Building]], and [[Dragonwilds:Runecrafting]]. Reaching 99 skill level in '''Mining''' will allow the player to craft the [[Dragonwilds:Mining Cape]].

==Pickaxes==
Pickaxes are required to mine various ores and minerals around [[Dragonwilds:Ashenfall]]. Using higher-level pickaxes will allow players to mine more quickly and obtain tougher resources.
