The prospector helmet is a part of the Prospector kit that can be bought from the Motherlode Mine in exchange for 40 golden nuggets, or from the Volcanic Mine for 26,000 points. The helmet increases Mining experience by 0.4% when worn. Despite having two lights attached to it, the Prospector helmet does not act as a light source.
Wearing the prospector helmet while entering the Mining Guild is a task in the hard Falador Diary.
Like the rest of the Prospector kit, the helmet provides partial protection against the heat of the Kharidian desert, adding 4 seconds to the interval between required sips from a waterskin, or 34 seconds if the entire set is worn.
This item can be stored in the armour case of a costume room, as part of the Prospector kit set. Ultimate Ironmen will be unable to retrieve individual pieces until the full set is stored.
Note: Any piece of the set that was purchased from the Petrified Pete's Ore Shop can't be sold for golden nuggets at the Prospector Percy's Nugget Shop. If you try to do this, you will receive the message "You can't sell this item back to Percy as you did not buy it from this shop".
