The adamant pickaxe is a pickaxe that is stronger than the mithril pickaxe, but weaker than the rune pickaxe. It requires an Attack level of 30 to wield, and a Mining level of 31 to mine with.

The adamant pickaxe mines on a 4-tick cycle, unlike other pickaxes. This allows it to be used for tick manipulation in various places, such as mining shooting stars.
