Fossil Pickaxe

The Fossil Pickaxe is a pickaxe that can be crafted from Sturdy Fossils or found in the Underground Desert. It can mine ores up to demonite/crimtane ore. It has 55% pickaxe power, the same as the gold pickaxe and a bit under the platinum pickaxe, which has 59% pickaxe power. This appears to be the fastest pickaxe before hardmode.
