An uncleaned find is a rock obtained in the Varrock Museum specimen cleaning activity. The specimens are obtainable from the rock piles within the activity. Players need to use it on a specimen table to reveal the archaeological artefact inside (see the list below). The cleaning activity can be done after finishing The Dig Site quest.

Players can take part in the cleaning activity in the south fenced-off corner of the museum. The tools necessary to do so can be found on the tool rack hanging on the wall. Players can then show the artefact to one of the archaeologists in the room, who will then tell them what to do with the item. Certain items are eligible for being displayed in the display cases. Other items can be put in the storage crates. On average, this results in 3-5 antique lamps per hour, depending on your efficiency.

Note: To keep copies of any items that can be turned in, the drop trick must be used. Handing them in removes any duplicates from the player's inventory and bank, and are unobtainable after being handed in.

Drop rates are estimated based on 712,667 samples from the Drop Rate Project, unless otherwise cited.

Note that while attempting to clean a find, there is a 14% chance that it will crumble to dust, and the specimen will be lost. If so, the following game message is shown:
The find crumbles to dust in your hands - oops! Better not let the professionals see that one!

The following drop rates assume the find has already been successfully cleared of soil.

After one of the following artefacts is uncovered, it will not be rolled again while it is either in the player's inventory, or has been put on display. The drop will then be replaced by a chance at rolling the unremarkable find table. Each displayed artefact is worth 10 Kudos.

There is a 38/51 chance to roll the common artefact table, containing noteworthy finds that can be placed in a storage crate to receive a random reward in return.

As unique artefacts are discovered, chances at rolling the unremarkable find table take their place. Once all unique artefacts have been found, there is a 13/51 chance of rolling this table.

Drop rates are estimated based on 504,075 samples from the Drop Rate Project, unless otherwise cited.

Common artefacts obtained while cleaning finds – that is to say pottery, jewellery, arrowheads, and old chipped vases – may be placed in a nearby storage crate to receive one of the following items as a reward:
