As of patch 4.0.1 mining grants XP.

At level 72 (with approximately 400 mining) I'm getting 1500xp from each cobalt vein whether I skill up or not.

Did a test and went back to Outland and got about 700xp from Adamantite (green) and even got a couple of hundred XP from mining Fel Iron (grey).

This XP is doubled if you are currently in 'rested' state too.

At lvl 78 with full rested bonus and 450 mining I was getting 1k xp from cobalt and 4200 xp from saronite. I only needed 2 bubbles of xp to lvl to 79 so I farmed for a short time after doing my JC daily and got my lvl. This is a nice change to help make you feel like you're getting something out of it when you need to farm for materials. Now if they would just do the same for fishing haha

Ore deposits have become far more abundant in seemingly all of the zones changed in the 4.03a patch, so leveling your skill from 1 to 300 is now easier then ever.

However, it should be noted that the phasing present in all of the zones can effect the visibility of ore nodes, so you might end up seeing more ore, less ore, or even no ore at all then someone else depending on how many quests you've done.

There is a trainer in Dark Shore, despite the list not having one :) It's a Night Elf this time, not a Dwarf.

Cataclysm Mining
I've found it easier to level mining and gather nodes from lvl 425-525 here:
Mount Hyjal: 425-475 (You could stay here to 500 too! just that there's more elementium to be gathered elsewhere.)
Deepholm: 475(500)-525

Commento di skunkart

I for one think they should add a mining mount....
Its not just a boulder... its a rock, o the pioneers used to drive these babies for miles.

If you're a Druid, and level 80 (and don't want to level yet), doing the quest for Vashj'ir that gets you into the starting ship for your zone and the one after (that awards the Sea Legs buff) gives you 450% speed on your Seal Form immediately.

Combine that with relatively low competition in the western half of the Abyssal Depths, and you have a nice place for some Obsidian farming.

I ended up doing this for a while since my Druid is neglected, and doesn't have 280% flying - I hate flying around at reg flight speeds.

More data. Have been curious about just how much XP is granted for different things AND because I am bored and farmed Deepholme for a bit.

Toon level 83
Mining skill 525
Fully rested.

Obsidium is Gray for Mining skill.
Obsidium Vein - 6050 XP per node.
Rich Obsidium Vein - 9680 XP per node.

Elementium is Yellow for Mining skill.
Elementium Vein - 9680 XP per node.
Rich Elementium Vein - 9680 XP per node.

About 1 hour flying around Deepholme. 60 Elementium Ore, 113 Obsidium Ore, a few volatiles. 448k XP gained (5.2 Million XP to level) A little less than 10% of a level in 1 hour. Roughly 11 hours to make level 84. It would be quite a bit slower to use Mining to level all the way, but not super, painfully, incredibly slow.

Level 85 requires 9 Million XP. That could be a bit on the boring side I suppose.

Hi All

Can someone help please- Am sure it is obvious but - I am level 82 (horde), mining level 450/450 can not get higher without training, which trainer should I use ? Thanks

Commento di Swordy

Since the old world has been sundered it's actually one of the easiest grinds for mining. Nodes are plentiful, compact and uniform on the map. Outlands is still awful with widely spread with up to several minutes passing between nodes.

Commento di 811379

the one thing i dont like about mining is when you get to about 420 i think, you have to search for like ever to get to 450 but the good thing is that you get tons of money for selling the things in the AH. What i like about the mining.

Commento di Paddi

I notice there is no mention of a mining trainer in Darnassus, I found one by the Cooking and first aid trainers, name is Forman Pernic and he is at 50.3,33.5.

Commento di 665055

Where does someone go to get their mining skill up to 535?

Commento di 526147

keep a spare set of gloves in your bag, enchant with "gatherer" adds +5 to your mining.. will allow you to mine the bosses that require 530

Commento di 738395

I'm a 47 (now) Worg Rogue, & just spent an hour (57 min and a few seconds, actually) mining Thousand Needles, starting from the north end (Feralas) and going a north to south, slightly east, then south to north (and repeat) pattern. Then going completely around the edge of the Shimmering Deep from the nw in a counter-clockwise path, finishing it where I started on the SD.This is what I yielded:

207 - Mithril Ore
73 - Iron Ore
18 - Gold
11 - Truesilver Ore
4 - Silver
6 - Aquamarine
3 - Citrine

Not bad for a little less than an hours work. And that is with a 85 NE Druid, a 53 Orc-lock, and a 44 Dranie Shaman mining also. I'm guessing its a pretty good area to mine most of the time. Has anyone had similar/better results?

Commento di 812264

ok i am stuck at mining 382 and everything is gray. what would i do to get to 400

Commento di 167985

As of patch 4.2.2 the "old world" skill thresholds for mining nodes and smelting ore have been significantly lowered. This makes it much easier to level mining.

Copper: 1
Tin/Bronze: 50
Silver: 65
Iron: 100
Gold: 115
Steel: 125
Mithril: 150
Truesilver: 165
Thorium: 200
Enchanted Thorium: 250

anyone got a skill rating? what are the lvls of orange-green-grey for each ore type?

Commento di 880046

For anyone who is a 19 twink like i am, and had already trained for Artisian mining. Don't level it to 300 to recieve Rank 4 of Toughness. I ended up nerfing myself because Rank 4 requires you to be level 25, and the effects will not apply, as well as losing rank 3 because the higher rank removes the lower ranks.

Commento di bookworm13

For the best resource for determining the Cataclysm adjusted mining levels as well as the best zones to farm them in, browse through the Mineral Veins listing.

For example you can see that Iron Ore can now be mined at 100 skill level and Feralas has the most nodes of all the zones.

I have just taking up mining and am smelting adamantite and it's gone grey at 340 but says that I need to be 350 to get to Cobalt/Eternium/Felsteel. How do I get the extra 10 points I need to get up to the next smelting point? I can add Gatherer but that would only make me 345. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I know about Enchanted Elementium but cant get into the raid dungeon to obtain that recipe. Please help :-)

Commento di kaipatu

I've come back to the game recently after 3 years away, so not sure when this was added or how it occurred...

Currently levelling a DK through Outland and was level 64 and mining capped at 375, when I dinged 65 and realised I was now gaining skill points again for mining.

A quick look at my professions tab told me I had automatically learned Grand Master Mining!

Anyone else noticed this? Or has a 3 year hiatus returned me to Noob status again :-/

Commento di Bubonic

I'm not sure about the best place to post this information, but with the new patch (4.3), my small map kept disappearing each time I looted ore. I fixed this by going to Interface -> Controls and checking "Open Loot Window at Mouse", which fixed the problem. I'm not sure how, but I hope this helps anyone else who is getting frustrated.

Draenei mine with one hand, what other races do this?

Commento di StabbyStabby

For those of you developing mining alts in Cata, I highly recommend selecting Engineering for your other primary profession. Then you can make yourself an Electrostatic Condenser. Extra Volatile Air is nice!

Commento di 341347

Power-leveled a DK to 450 mining to see how much experience I would get from obsidium ore at lvl 65. Only got 1600 exp per node rested and with 4 heirlooms. Seems low compared to other people's numbers. I wonder if they nerfed the experience or have it set to give significantly diminished returns if you are much lower level than the zone. Anyone else ever mine obsidium ore with a lvl 65?

Ah mining, the profession that can land you a lot of gold with time and patience. Once you mine any necessary ore to increase your skill and go train it some more and after you level up any second profession you might have, sell your leftover ore/bars on the auction house, you'd be surprised at the prices even the most common and easy to get ore can sell for. I once sold a couple copper ore for 30 gold each! People sometimes choose two professions that are completely unrelated and buy all the necessary mats on the AH(auction house). Keep an eye on the prices for ore/bars on the AH while you're at it since you wouldn't want to auction three silver bars for lets say 80 gold when the other silver bars are posted for 50 gold. I'm not sure about the other two gathering professions since I've only auctioned ore and bars on my tauren dk and my alts all have different professions. Anyhow, feel free to tell me how you feel about my post and if you're going to downrate me, please leave a comment that explains why you don't like it or didn't find it helpful. One more thing, I didn't expect this comment to be so long.

Just for the sake of random knowledge as anything else... I know there are trainers on both Aldor Rise and Scryer's Tier, but are there any freaking forges in Shattrath?

Commento di 1006598

Im having a problem leveling mining from 340 to 350. I have read the entry by Eversoris, but no one has offered any useful solution -- certainly not Kaipatu. Maybe if people like Kaipatu would put some effort into knowing what they're talking about rather than making condescending remarks insinuating others arent playing the game correctly, we may have an answer to some of our questions. For everyone's info, when smelting Fel Iron goes gray at 340, so does the ability to gain levels mining it. The next possible ore to mine is Adamantite and you have to be level 350 to mine it. So "going out into the world to mine" rather than being lazy as was suggested doesnt seem to be an option. My toon is too high a level to get into the raid and try to get the book to learn smelt Enchanted Elementium. The glove enhancement only would give me a level of 345. Anyway, please help me and maybe a b;uch of others.

Commento di TimeTraveler

Stuck in gray ? This may be helpful since I don't see posted by anyone..

I've found this on two toons when the ore goes gray yet not high enough to pick up the next ore. If you mine the different "rich" ores that you can, sometimes you pick up a higher ore which then increases your mining skill by default. This is how I got from 340 to 350

Commento di 958590

where is the best place to mine adamantite, ive seen a few in hell fire and some in zangramarsh.. but im not completely sure of the best spot..

Commento di andirhyme

75 Mining: Lesser Bloodstone Ore
Orange 75-99
Yellow 100-124

Commento di Ulrikekekeka

Okay. Levels for smelting and mining are not exactly the same. Almost, but not quite.

For example, 'Smelting' shows copper going yellow at 25, but it doesn't actually state that it can be mined at level 1+. Also, it shows that thorium can be smelted at 250, but doesn't show that thorium veins can be mined at 245+.

But it is important to note that at early levels (haven't confirmed which level, but I think Fel Iron) you can increase your mining skill by smelting ore until it turns grey.
So, for instance, at level 1 mining, you could purchase 50x Copper Ore, smelt it and increase your mining level without even having seen a mineral vein. This can drastically reduce the actual time spent mining to level.

So, here is a list that shows what level of mining is actually required to mine a particular vein or deposit.

*UPDATED 08-July-2023 with all WOTLK mining levels.

Mineral vein/Ore	Mining skill required
Copper vein = Copper Ore	1
Tin vein = Tin Ore Incendicite Mineral Vein = Incendicite Ore	65
Silver Vein = Silver Ore Ooze Covered Silver Vein = Silver Ore Lesser Bloodstone Deposit = Lesser Bloodstone Ore	75
Iron Deposit = Iron Ore	125
Indurium Mineral Vein = Indurium Ore	150
Gold Vein = Gold Ore Ooze Covered Gold Vein = Gold Ore	155
Mithril Deposit = Mithril Ore Ooze Covered Mithril Deposit = Mithril Ore	175
Truesilver Deposit = Truesilver Ore Ooze Covered Truesilver Deposit = Truesilver Ore Dark Iron Deposit = Dark Iron Ore	230
Small Thorium Vein = Thorium Ore Ooze Covered Thorium Vein = Thorium Ore	245
Rich Thorium Vein = Thorium Ore Ooze Covered Rich Thorium Vein = Thorium Ore	275
Fel Iron Deposit = Fel Iron Ore	300
Eternium Ore is a random item that can be mined from Adamantite Deposit, Rich Adamantite Deposit, Khorium Vein or a Nethercite Deposit	325
Adamantite Deposit = Adamantite Ore	325
There are 2 entries on Wowhead for Adamantite deposits, so here are both of them Rich Adamantite Deposit = Adamantite Ore Rich Adamantite Deposit = Adamantite Ore Cobalt Deposit = Cobalt Ore	350
Khorium Vein = Khorium Ore Rich Cobalt Deposit = Cobalt Ore	375
Saronite Deposit = Saronite Ore	400
Rich Saronite Deposit = Saronite Ore	425
Pure Saronite Deposit = Saronite Ore Titanium Vein = Titanium Ore	450

Commento di xLunacyx

Does mining skill actually increase the number of hits an ore can give? I've been getting 1 thorium from small thorium veins at 260 and a guildie says they get 3-4 hits at 310.

Commento di themagicteeth

It says "Blacksmithing" should say "Mining". It does link to the mining page though.
