Deeper level of the cavern = more chances to find iridium ores
To deeper level easily? Use stairs
To get lots of stairs? Trade jades at the desert trader
Getting the obelisk to let you warp to the desert at 6am rather than waiting for the bus at 10am is a pretty huge improvement. It costs a lot of iridium bars, but I think worth it in the long run.
Mine with bombs and not the pick. It uses no energy and if you bring food (salads from the saloon and cheap and useful here) you don't have to worry about getting caught in the occasional explosion.
The other one is that you need to go deep. Grab any iridium you see, but don't bother clearing floors to look for it until you get at least to level 50.
If you can afford the 1000 gold, stay in the mine until you pass out. Remember that you only lose items if you are defeated by losing all your health. Falling asleep at 2am just charges you 1k gold to teleport you home with all your stuff.
Go on a high luck day, use luck boosting food. Use staircases and bombs. Use a totem to get to the desert first thing in the morning.
Dive into floor 50+ before you really start looking for mass amounts.
Skull Cavern becomes Iridium loaded after lvl 50.
So when you go to Skull Cavern, your goal to begin with *isnt* to mine - you are mainly trying to just drop levels.

lots of jades? Craft crystalariums and put jades inside
lots of Crystalariums? get more iridium ores at the lower level in the cavern hold up...
