Where Can I Mine Copper & Tin in Runescape?
Training the Mining skill in the online role-playing game "RuneScape" requires you to mine rocks with a pickaxe and receive ore that is used to train the Smithing skill. Several mining sites are located throughout Gielinor, some available to all players and some available to member players only. When you begin training the Mining skill, you are able to mine only low-level ores, including copper and tin. Several mining sites contain both ores but also contain monsters that can make training the skill risky.

Edgeville Dungeon

The Edgeville Dungeon mine is located in the center of the Edgeville dungeon and is available to free and member players. The dungeon contains several monsters, including hobgoblins, skeletons and hill giants. You can enter the Edgeville Dungeon in Edgeville but the Varrock entrance is closer to the mine. To enter the Varrock entrance, you must have a brass key, which you can obtain inside the mine or through the Grand Exchange. The mine contains two copper rocks and two tin rocks and is relatively close to the Edgeville Bank and Varrock West Bank.
Desert Mining Camp
-
The Desert Mining Camp is available to member players who have completed the Tourist Trap quest. The mine is located south of Al Kharid in the Kharidan Desert. Although there are two mines in the Desert Mining Camp, only the surface mine contains copper rocks. There are four copper and four tin ores available on the surface for players to mine. The mine does not contain a bank, nor does it have a bank or furnace nearby, so mining ore in this location is not practical for players who save the ore for Smithing.
