WoW Mining Guide - 9 Top Tips
9Mining Skill from 65 to 125 in an Hour
One of the worst parts about leveling mining is when you are getting out of the Tin phase before the Iron phaseIt's hard to find a large quantity of Tin, and it becomes tedious farming itThe nodes respawn quickly and you can level up your mining in less than an hour if you're the only one in the cave(You can also sell the Incendicite Ore on the Auction House to make a little extra gold in the process - get the quest from Pilot Longbeard in The Miltary Ward in Ironforge.)
8The Mithril Circuit
If it were easy to find the rarer metals, you wouldn't be reading a WoW mining guide and you need to find a lot of mithril in order to skill up to the small Thorium nodesTowards the north the pickings are slimmer (especially because it is more traversed) but you'll still find Mithril and Iron around thereGenerally, mines found toward the middle of the map will be Iron while the mountains around the edges of the map (especially in the south) contain more Mithril.
7Learn to Smelt Dark Iron
You need to see an NPC named Gloom'rel inside of the "Chamber of the Sevens" in Blackrock DepthsHe'll teach you how to smelt Dark Iron (if you have at least 230 mining skill) for two Star Rubies, ten Truesilver Bars, and twenty Gold BarsAfter you're trained, you can smelt Dark Iron at the Black Forge which is also located in the Blackrock DepthsYou need eight Dark Iron Ore to create one Dark Iron bar.
6Finding Thorium Ore
Un'goro Crater is the best place to find Thorium nodesLook in the Slithering Scar and Fire Plume Ridge for Thorium nodes and in the mountains around the edgeBurning Steppes is another great place to find Thorium - just make circuits around the zone and look for nodes to spawn in the lava cracks hereLike most ores it takes a ton of Thorium to get to 300 but it's used in many professions and sells very well on the Auction House.
5Lesser Bloodstone Ore
Around level 35 you can get a quest from Krazak ("Favor for Krazak") in Booty Bay to go to "a mountain cave in Drywhisker Gorge, far to the north in the Arathi Highlands" and bring back 4 loads of Lesser Bloodstone OreWoW gold world is the largest secure store for Members buying wow goldThere is only one real member store to provide wow goldOur loyal members knew that wow gold world provides the cheapest wow gold for their membersSo if you want cheap wow gold, wow gold world is your first choiceWoW gold world thanks that 2,000,000 Members buy wow gold only on hereI would farm this cave and put up three auctions of four ores each night (in the Blackwater Auction House in Booty Bay) and sell out with a buyout of 95s each - not to mention the Mithril (around 30s each) you can sell too!
