Blast mine

Blast Mining is a new feature of mining, released on January 7th, 2016. Blast Mining is a minigame on the continent of Zeah in the city of Great Kourend, found in the Lovakengj house. Blast mining is a minigame which grants mining and firemaking experience.

The blast mining minigame involves creating dynamite and using it to blast chunks of valuable ores from within hard rock. It requires 100% favor in the Lovakengj house in order to play.

Players excavate hard rock and insert dynamite to blast off 'Blasted Ore.' If a player is standing within a few tiles of the blast they will take damage.

There are multiple ore sacks to deposit your blasted ore into.

20 Mining experience is granted for excavating the hard rock, and 50 firemaking experience is granted for lighting the dynamite. The rest of the mining experience is then collected along with your ores.

It should be noted that players do NOT need a pick axe in order to mine here. The only things needed are a Tinder Box, Chisel, and Dynamite.
