For most of the player, mining is the best profession to start with in the World of Warcraft. The reason is that mining is much easier to make gold even in the early levels of game play.
   There is many a World of Warcraft gamer focus on mining only in Northrend, this is fine but remember since the introduction of Jewelcrafting that all mining materials sells well. Keep in mind that Jewelcrafting requires ores to level up as well as gems which you can get by prospecting the ore which means that Mining is an excellent way to start off with if you want to make some wow gold early on.
   There is a quick tip which tells that World of Warcraft mining in Northrend allows you not only to get ores but also crystallized elements such as Water, Earth, Shadow, and green Gems.
   Let us take a look at Azeroth. Not only do its deposits produce ore but they can also drop stones that are used by jewelcrafters thereby opening anther revenue stream for you. This is a very easy and inexpensive way to get some jewelcrafting skill points. We would recommend that you mine ore of all types and keep most of the metal in ore form. Do not smelt it into bars. Why? The reason is that ore can be prospected into gems which are in high demand to a Jewelcrafter. And though Jewelcrafters use the bars as well, you can never change bars back into ore form. Just keeping it in ore form keeps your options open.
   Now it is the time for us to reveal a couple of great spots for mining in Azorth. Let's get down to it in depth.
   Some of the most valuable mining veins are the thorium veins. If your Mining Profession level is high enough, one of the best areas is the Un'goro crafter as well as Winterspring. There is a lot of competition for the ore but they drop a lot of thorium and also you get a chance every so often at Arcane crystals, Azerothian diamonds and other valuable gems. Those spots are cool but you should remember that they are competitive.
   There is an area that most of the World of Warcraft games miss. It is Hearthglen, which mine in the Northern Western Plaguelands. There is one rich thorium vein just on the outside of the mine, but wait, go inside by reason that there are two more. They have a fast respawn time but are careful because the veins inside the mine are guarded by groups of two miners. Don't worry too much though because they are non-elite miners and almost all classes can either solo or distract them. Keep an eye out for those arcane crystals as well. But most of the time we have seen a few drops at a time. With that said, this secret spot should pose no issues for most gamers. You need a minimum Mining level of 251 since this is thorium were talking about.
   In a nutshell, mining is a skill that requires repetitive cycling to get to the high skill levels. Just keep going at it and focus on the abundant sources so you can quickly increase your skill level. It is a highly rewarding task after all the effort because of the money you can make and items you can create from it. As above, you are getting rich as long as you follow the aforementioned tips. Good luck!
