Location of Rocks
Neitiznot (North)
Neitiznot (North) contains all the types of Rocks. There is also a furnace/ anvil so players can train their Smithing skill at the same time.
Resource Area
At the resource area you can find pretty much all types of ore, except copper,tin,and runite ore. This is located in the wilderness, so do be aware of pvpers or players looking to kill skillers.
Members Zone
As the name of the place suggests, you need to be a Member to enter this area. Ores up to runite will be found in the Members Zones.
Mining master
The mining master (Gadrin) can be found at Neitiznot, member zones and some other places. The master can give you your skilling cape for free when you reach level 99.

Finally, you can see his master's shop where you can spend your mining points.
