Just like the title says, where is the best places to level my mining - getting ready to hit OL's and with the new leveling speed, actually outleveled my mining, which hasn't happened before. Thanks!
Southern mountain range in the hinterlands is covered with spawn places for Mithril (counted 24 over 1,5year ago, iirc).
get a tracking mod that records your mining/herb etc (several have included location maps).
for Thorium i leveled in Ungoro/EPL as well, although in Ungoro you really need to know where to look for the nodes. I never really looked into Silithus as when i was leveling my mining toon it hadnt been revamped yet. you might be able to find a load of nodes there as well, as it pretty much is deserted these days (on my realm atleast).wow gold
If you do hit ungoro, which is good and easy sinces basiacally you just do a large cirlce...but if you go there, head to Silithus. In Silithius there are hives, in each hive are lots of large thorium veins. But when I was farming there, there were 55 elites , or right around there anyhow, but Ive notices that with recent patches, some elites are no longer elites. I used to get clost to 100 ores when Id run ungoro and silithus together.
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Burning Steppes. That place is by far the best I have found for the 275-300 portion due to the large amount of Rich Thorium Veins in a fantastic continuous circuit. Un'Goro would normally be my second pick except that Silithus is a lot more friendly to Thorium farming now that all the elites have been removed from the hives.cheap wow gold
The first portion of the thorium levels I would probably choose Blasted Lands or Hinterlands (which is my favourite place for Mithril).
