    It can be gained from clicking an Iron Mine, looks like a few rocks in a pile, as long as you have a Pickaxe in your inventory. They spawn all over the place in sub-25 areas. Just wander around, keep an eye out, and you should spot them.

    by sub 25 you mean areas meant to be used by players under 25 right?

    Yep. You can find some in areas with monsters higher level than that, but you also start running into Dark Iron Mines (high-carbon iron), so it gets a lot slower for higher level spots.

    Not true I am a barb and i collected enough pig iron, sandstone, etc to get all of my crafting up to level 2 in two days. The only thing i bought was jade. You just have to look in mob populated areas.

    You should get at least one pig iron from an iron mine, you still have the tool you need for the crafting quest? Did you get attacked while digging? Check the messages window.
    If you can't find Mines, look around for it in area's with fewer players, or at odd times of the day - and don't fly to high.

    I've always found an abundance of iron mines near the City of Lost.b:laugh

    Well, is there much Pig Iron in Ethervale? Couse I have been looking for awhile now and I only found two mines, and I don't want to travel that much for Smithing.
