Mining for gold — Gold Farm · Gathering · WoW Wrath of the Lich King
Ore, stone and gems feed blacksmiths, engineers, jewelcrafters and other crafters. The Mining guide covers the veins to mine at each skill and where to find them on the World Map, training, tools and a smelting calculator.
Before you go: Prices for raw materials change with the realm and the time of the week; check your auction house before a long session.
Value: No fixed gold-per-hour figure: it depends on your realm's prices and how contested the nodes are.
