General Method Description

Adamantite is the second most valuable ore in the game and always in demand, but making money solely by mining it is very difficult, because most mines have only a few adamantite rocks, and they take 4 to 6 minutes to respawn. The only place in the game with an abundance of adamantite rocks is at the bottom of the Abandoned Mine; the problem here is that you must go through an annoying procedure to get to the mine, which takes about 7 to 8 minutes from the nearest bank.

The solution to using the Abandoned Mine adamantite ores is the pack yak, which has a scroll, Winter Storage, that lets you send items straight to your bank. The scrolls of course have value, so this cuts down on the profitability of the method, but it is still a decent money-maker, provides moderate Mining and some Summoning XP, and is a nice option for experienced players who want to make use of their high levels.
