Mine Granite in the desert. Bring 24 waterskins. Mine then drop the granite immediately. After 24 waterskins run out. Go back to shanty's pass buy 24 more and repeat.

That's in Quarry. I can also mine several Gold ore in the Living Rock Caverns, mine also coal to smelt the steel bar, mithril bar, adamantite bar and runite bar. In the Living Rock Caverns, there are lots of LR creature, so get past, Coal and Gold mine is known as Concentrated rock. LRC mine is also faster to reach level 99 Mining.

If I were in your situation...I'd do this (this is the same method i'm currently following/will follow)
I did...60-77 - Granite
77-80 - Concentrated Coal
80-99 - Concentrated Gold.

Total Money gain - About 65m...(about 42m made so far for me)

I'm 96/99 mining atrm..(well 95, but i'll get 96 today.)

You confuse me. 74-80 granite at quarry. 80-99 gold deposits at living rock cavern. BoB familiars/mining boosters help there.

That's great to mine Gold in the LRC. I'm gonna mine Granite at Quarry first (75-77), then mine coal at the LRC (77-80) and then gold mine in the LRC (80-99). I'm might get 10 or 20 days to reach 99 Mining.

Concentrated gold deposits from 80+

It'll be a long time down there. To avoid the monsters, go to world 80, it's so full of mining/fishing noobs (like me) you'll be quite safe.

10 days = mining for 24 hours a day. 20 days = mining for 12 hours a day. I highly doubt you can do it in 20 days. Set your goal for 2 months which is more realistic.

I don't know how to make new topic as a Goal & Accomplishments. 75-85 then and then 75-99 in Mining. Its 140k+ to mine Gold in the LRC. 75/76-77 first then 77-80 to mine coal in the LRC then 80-85 gold mine and 85-99 continues to mine gold.

Only someone like me is able to achieve 99 in 20 days.

==Basics
Iron Ore till 75 ABOUT is recommended
Granite till 80 (or 99)
Concentrated Gold till 99

Wouldn't bother with concentrated coal really... for granite you should do 'Dealing with Scabaras' quest for the enchanted water tiara but since SOMEBODY added concentrated gold it's now only for the hardcore miner. That's all you need to know. Granite and concentrated gold are about the same if you focus but gold is better for passive experience. Which totally ruined the Mining skill forever.

Only you can decide which method you PREFER. These are only guidelines. Go have fun maxing a now dead skill.

Very nice, lol. When I get level 85 I'll test the Runite mine. Then go back to the Gold mine in the LRC.

Rune is TOTALLY not worth it. I did like 10 ore and was sick of it. First off, too many people do it, so none of the rocks are ever spawned. Second, I tried it in the wildy, and got pked by noob revs, cause the rock is in like lvl 48 or something. don't try it, it's a waste of your time.

Why I'm not try to mine Runite?

For those with patience and a little practice, mining Runite Ores is very profitable and is worth it while other skills aren't as developed. It helped me pay for 99 firemaking and started off my membership with a good supply of cash.

- If you know most of the good locations and know how to time it properly then go ahead.
- If you get frustrated easily or prefer faster experience then don't bother.
