WoW Tin Ore – WoW Mining Tin

by Webmaster on Jan.11, 2010, under Tin

Tin Ore is the next list you’ll be exposed to and may even be exposed to some Tin Veins while mining Copper. You must be mining skill level 65 in order to mine Tin. As I know it can be quite frustrating mining for gold at times I thought you may be interested in this Gold Course which shows you how to maximize your gold profits.

There are quite a few zones to get Tin so I’m going to focus on two of the best. You can call one for horde and one for alliance if you want, but what I really did is made one per continent in case you are unable to freely travel or don’t feel like it. The two zones I choose for mining Tin are Hillsbrad Foothills and The Barrens. The Barrens will be great for everyone who was mining copper in The Barrens you probably also mined Tin while there when your skill was high enough.

Tin Ore in The Barrens

This map is incredibly similar to the copper route for The Barrens. The main focus for this however, should be in the higher level mobbed areas, especially in the south where the mobs reach as high as level 25. I’ve also cut out some of the other route that was used for Copper.

Here are the two different database sources for nodes where Copper was recorded by people mining. (Click to Enlarge)

Tin Ore in Hillsbrad Foothills

The next location up is Hillsbrad Foothills, the mobs will range from 20-30 in this zone so be careful. The real area to focus on is the Azurelode Mine in the southwest marked by a V on the map. I wouldn’t even bother doing anything else but grinding in that cave and mining nodes as they respawn, but if you’re not in the level range to grind, go ahead and follow the route, as there are some Tin Veins along the way.
