The Elder Rune Ore Box is a useful item in the game RuneScape, a massively multiplayer online role-playing game. This box is a high-tier version of the ore box, which can be used to store ores and coal. The Elder Rune Ore Box can store up to 100 of each ore, including coal. To obtain the Elder Rune Ore Box, players need to have level 99 in Smithing and complete the Elite Varrock Tasks. This makes the box a prestigious item that only players who have reached high levels in Smithing can acquire. Having the Elder Rune Ore Box in their inventory allows players to mine and store a larger quantity of ores before needing to go back to a bank to deposit them.
Having the Elder Rune Ore Box in their inventory allows players to mine and store a larger quantity of ores before needing to go back to a bank to deposit them. This is especially useful for players who are training their Smithing skill or need a large number of ores for other purposes, such as crafting or selling. The Elder Rune Ore Box can be upgraded to the Imcando Ore Box, which has an increased storage capability of up to 120 ores of each type.
Mining runite ore
Mining runite ore, which is a high-level ore that frequently sells for a high price ( 11,197 coins) due to its use in producing runite bars via Smithing, is an achievement in itself. They are highly popular and often are depleted of their resources, so players need to switch worlds in order to find fresh runite rocks. By doing quests and unlocks, more locations to mine runite will become available to you.
Non-members can only mine runite at one location - the Wilderness Rune Mine, which contains two rocks. It is located north-west of the Lava Maze in level 46 Wilderness. Since it is in the Wilderness, players should not take anything they are not prepared to lose. It's also suggested for players to mine with extreme caution since there is the always-looming threat of a player killer.
Before venturing out there, players should bring a few pieces of food and Armour. Having a scout, such as a noob account, can be used to assess the risks and find available rocks.
If you have a members account however, more locations will become available to you. Quests such as Song of the Elves, and unlocking account progressions such as fire cape will give way to less crowded mining locations.
At 99 mining, GP rates can exceed ~1.2m gp/hr with optimal equipment & unlimited rocks between 8-10 world hops (2 rocks per world). However, runite mining can be very competitive, even at the most remote locations. Players must hop worlds every time the ore is depleted, in search of fresh rocks, which respawn every 12 minutes. Total level worlds such as 1750, 2000, 2200 are more likely to contain unmined runite rocks than non-total worlds.
The rate at which runite is mined greatly depends on how much competition is at the mine. Players can easily mine 50, and up to ~110 ores an hour if you get rocks all to yourself. With no direct costs, this profits between 559,850 and 1,175,685 coins. A relatively afk player hopping between total level worlds can expect ~65 ores per hour, or 727,805 coins. Factor in Varrock armour 4, and the player has a 10% chance of mining two ores at once. Players can also use superior mining gloves, which give a 12.5% chance of the rock not depleting.

Initially, ore boxes can store up to 100 of each ore, which is increased by 20 as the player reaches certain level milestones. After completing the Everything Is Oresome achievement, requiring 90 Mining, the maximum capacity for each ore except gold and silver is increased by a further 20, up to a maximum of 140.
To upgrade, players need to have level 117 in Smithing and possess an Imcando Ore Box. The Imcando Ore Box is a separate item that can be obtained by completing the You Are It quest and requires level 99 in Smithing. Overall, the Elder Rune Ore Box is a valuable item that can significantly improve a player's efficiency in mining and storing ores. It is a reward for high-level Smithing and offers additional benefits when upgraded to the Imcando Ore Box. Players who possess this item can enjoy a more streamlined mining experience in RuneScape..
Reviews for "The Elder Rune Ore Box: A Guide to Improving Your Mining Experience in RuneScape"
1. - John - 1 star - The Elder Run Ore Box was a complete waste of my time and money. It claimed to be able to improve my mining experience, but I found it to be quite the opposite. The box was way too heavy to carry around, and I ended up straining my back trying to lug it around. Additionally, the promised increase in ore yield was minimal at best. I would not recommend this product to anyone.
2. - Lisa - 2 stars - I was really excited to try out the Elder Run Ore Box, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The box itself is poorly designed and difficult to handle. It feels like it was made with cheap materials, and I'm afraid it won't last very long. As for its functionality, I didn't notice any significant improvement in my mining output. Overall, I think there are better alternatives out there for anyone looking to enhance their mining experience.
3. - Mike - 2 stars - I don't understand the hype around the Elder Run Ore Box. It's supposed to make mining easier and more efficient, but I didn't find that to be the case at all. First of all, the box is way too expensive for what it offers. Secondly, it's advertised as being portable, but it's actually quite bulky and difficult to carry around. Lastly, the promised increase in ore yield was almost negligible. I regret purchasing this product and wish I had invested my money elsewhere.
