An '''iron rock''' is a protruding rock containing [[iron ore]]. A player with a [[Mining]] level of 15 or higher can mine [[iron ore]] from rocks found in various [[Mining#Mine table|mines]], granting 35 Mining [[experience]] for each ore mined. After being mined, an iron rock takes 5 seconds to [[respawn]].
 
 
Iron is the most popular ore that [[free-to-play]] players power-mine for experience. Using a [[Rune pickaxe]] with a high Mining level, a player can extract the iron ore from the rock in one strike, while mining [[copper]], [[tin]], or [[clay]] takes two or three strikes.
 
 
==Banking==
 
Iron ore rocks that are close to a [[bank]] include:
 
* [[East Varrock Mine]] - Bank at [[East Varrock Bank]].
 
* [[Dorgesh-Kaan Mine]] - Bank at the [[Culinaromancer's Chest]], which requires doing the first subquest of [[Recipe for Disaster]], and [[The Lost Tribe]] is required to gain access to the mine. Also, a [[light source]], such as a [[Mining helmet]], is needed. For best results, do the following:
 
::#Talk to [[Kazgar]] and have him take you to the mines.
 
::#Mine until your inventory is full of ore.
 
::#Go to [[Mistag]] and have him show you out of the mines.
 
::#Go into the [[Lumbridge Castle]] basement through the hole and bank at the Culinaromancer's Chest if Recipe for Disaster is partially completed, or bank at the Lumbridge Castle bank on the top floor if not.
 
::#Deposit all the ore and then go back to the mines and repeat.
 
* Iron ore rocks at the [[Fight Arena Mine]] near [[Port Khazard]] - Bank at the Port Khazard [[deposit box]] or at [[Yanille]].
 
* The [[Piscatoris Fishing Colony]] [[Piscatoris Mine|Mine]] - Bank inside the colony and must have completed [[Swan Song]]. Also, it's an excellent place to power-mine as it's one of four [[mines]], with the other three being [[Fossil Island]], [[Al Kharid Mine]] and [[Legends' Guild Mine]], that contains three iron rocks close together.
 
* The [[East Ardougne Mine]] between [[East Ardougne]] and the [[Legends' Guild]] - Bank at [[Ardougne South Bank]]. Also, it's an excellent place to power-mine as it's one of three mines, with the other two being Al Kharid Mine and [[Piscatoris Mine]], that contains three iron rocks close together.
 
* Right outside of the [[Mining Guild]] in [[Dwarven Mine]] - Bank at [[East Falador Bank]].
 
* The iron ore rocks south of [[East Ardougne]] at [[South Ardougne Mine]] - Bank at Ardougne South Bank, or use an [[Ardougne cloak]] and [[Amulet of glory]] to get to the mine and bank at [[Edgeville]].
 
* The [[West Falador Mine]] - Bank at [[West Falador Bank]]. Also, level 5 [[Agility]] is needed to negotiate the [[shortcut]].
 
* For the daring and adventurous, the [[Steel Mine]] in the level 6 [[Wilderness]] north of [[Edgeville]] also offers a few iron ore rocks.

== Trivia ==
 
* At the [[Mining Guild]], [[Al Kharid Mine]], [[Piscatoris Mine]], [[Legends' Guild Mine]] and [[Verdant Valley]], there are three rocks in a triangle formation, thus making the player able to mine [[iron]] faster (i.e. [[Power levelling|power-mine]]) due to the three [[respawn]]s.
