Official difficulty	Experienced
Description	Recent forays into Morytania by some of Saradomin's more fanatical supporters have unearthed murky rumours concerning an abandoned mine in the south. Legend speaks of an unusual material, hidden in the depths of the mines, that is somehow linked to the desolation and fear that now surrounds the place. Do you have the nerve to find out more, and enter the haunted mines of Morytania?

A pickaxe (obtained during quest), to complete Morytania Diary, also requires 55 mining.

Additional tips[]

• Players can use a ball of wool on a salve shard to make a salve amulet.
• The mining key, obtained after killing the ghost, can be put on the steel key ring.
• Unless the player has a low defence or prayer level, it is often more efficient to rush the boss directly, tanking the crane hits than it is to spend time navigating the area.
• Mining mithril ore within the abandoned mine is a hard task in the morytania set. You can receive a pickaxe by attempting to take one of the iron pickaxes laying on the ground near the bottom of the lift, which will come to life (level-50) before dropping an iron pickaxe. There is also a spawn of a bronze pickaxe at the top of the lift, just to the west.

Reward[]
