About Mithril pickaxe
The Mithril pickaxe is a free-to-play weapon in Old School RuneScape.
"Used for mining"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 391 and 513 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 487 gp. About 18,789 units changed hands per day. The price is down 3.2% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 40 every 4 hours. Selling one at the average price costs 9 gp in Grand Exchange tax.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 780 gp, which is 60.2% above the 30-day average price, so buying and alching it covers its own cost before the nature rune.
