'Action XP' is what you earn from the actions before your XP mode multiplier. See XP modes and rates and the full XP table.

Mining gives ore for Smithing and is a steady source of coins.

Levels 1-15: copper and tin. Smelt them into bronze bars for early Smithing.
Levels 15-30: iron ore. Then coal from 30: because every bar needs only one coal here, coal goes a long way.
Levels 30-70: gold, mithril at 55 and adamantite at 70.
Levels 70-99: adamantite, then runite at 85 (rare rocks, hop between them).

Common mistake: mining with a weak pickaxe. An upgrade pays for itself quickly.

'Action XP' is the XP the actions give before your multiplier. Divide it by the XP of one action to get the number of actions.

Mining: Mine rocks with a pickaxe: copper and tin from level 1, iron 15, coal 30, gold 40, mithril 55, adamantite 70, runite 85.

Check your XP mode with ::modes: the same action gives very different XP at 1x and 20x.
Banking and travel eat time: pick a method close to a bank.
Items you make or gather have their own pages in Items with the Grand Exchange price.
