This is only used as an ore for smelting it into bars (which hardly counts) and
Greater Stoneshield Potions

In terms of AH, it's usually prefered in bars.

As of patch 2.0.3 this ore stacks to 20.

In terms of price per ore Thorium seems to be the most valuable, when you take into account the OL ores take 2 to smelt a bar and are heavily farmed by people with epic flyers. I've made more money selling the much less farmed thorium than adamantite.

What a moneymaker.
My realm Nazgrel opened to transfers a few months ago, and we're starting to see a flood of high-levels. (I checked the census numbers at Warcraft Realms, just to confirm my suspicions, and it does seem to be the case.)
So we've reached an intersection with players on their way up with their first characters, moving out of "Old World" and through the portal, and elites who can afford to buy rather than farm.
And it just so happens that thorium is best found in areas that are "unpopular" with players since they can hang out in Hellfire at 58, instead of the old 56-60 zones, like Burning Steppes, Winterspring, Eastern Plaguelands, etc. etc.
Players not populating these areas = players not farming these areas = thorium not farmed as consistently + still a demand for thorium = profit for you.
(If nothing else, two thorium bars are part of the quest requirements for That's Asking a Lot.
http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=6026
If you don't get a full stack of thorium and don't feel like filling it out, smelt for two, put them up for auction, and see what happens.)
Cons: You're going to head to some podunk areas with teeth-gnashing travel times. These zones are also pretty spread out from one another.
Pros: You won't compete against many other players.
On a good day, I can make 40g with two stacks after a few hours of mining, easily. At this rate, a miner with some dedication can make enough for an epic mount without breaking a sweat.

Thorium prices are ridiculous on my server. 25G for a stack is undercutting the competition.
I've made well over a grand at 56 off thorium alone.

You can make thorium settings (

Winterspring is the best place for Rich Thorium. Basically as Zedd said above if you do that pattern you can get easily 50 ore in less then an hour. And i figure out how to Jack prices up on AH. Basically wait till theres no Thorium left on AH and then put up a couple at 30g. And then people will put theres at like 29g and then put all of yours for like 28g.

I think In Silithus with the elites, in the caves is the best place as lvl 70 to farm Thorium :) Lots of Ooze Covered Rich Thorium Vein
http://www.wowhead.com/?object=177388
inside :)
Good luck

Just like some guys said if your 70 and want to mine thorium winterspring is the way to go, the elites in the south acts as a very good buffer for most of the server, just 70's can easily get thru it and mine. Very good spot i used to mine in EPL good spot too but proably over farmed

On a recent Thorium farming session in Wintersrpinds I got a very consistent number of ores (4 - 5) per Rich Thorium Vein.
This is an increase on what I previously remember Rich Thorium Veins previously dropping.

A really good amount can be found in Silithus, just do circuts.

I found that EPL is the optimum zone for leveling mining from 275 to 300. The nodes are spaced in almost a perfect circle around the zone, the mob levels make you invisible at 70, and on a "full" server, I had zero competition. There is a nice blending of small thorium/rich thorium to keep your skill levels climbing.
Also, for you jewelcrafters out there, heres a lil breakdown of the prospecting potential of thorium.
After 200 ore prospected...
Most common gem: Blue Sapphire
2nd most common gem: Azerothian Diamond
3rd most common gem: Huge Emerald
4th most common gem: Large Opal
Least common gem: Arcane Crystal
You are more likely to get an Arcane Crystal from the actual vein than you are to prospect it.
Happy hunting :D

I recently spent a while farming Thorium to help my GF level her JC so she could prospect for Huge Emeralds. I found that the best place out of all the ones mentioned above was Silithus.
Darkwhisper Gorge is a pain as the tunnels dismount you and the Plaguelands aren't too great either as the veins are mostly found on the edges of the map.
I farmed about 100 ore in an hour of riding around Silithus and I got a good few gems (mainly Huge Emeralds) while I was mining.

i know this might not help much but it progressed my mining skill up 30 points for 5 minutes work, i went on AH to see how much thorium ore was then checked it with the bars they were going for the same price so ofc i bought up all the ores on ah and made them into bars skilling up then selling them on for same price.

I may be wrong on this, but there seems to be slightly less nodes in Eastern Plaguelands in the Noxious Glade and Tyr's Hand because of the Ruins of the Scarlet Enclave.

Some have suggested Darkwhisper Gorge, but I do not. To traverse the gorge you need to go through tunnels that dismount you, wasting you time. I'm a paladin with crusader aura, so with all the dismounts I am really disadvantaged. I suggest somewhere that is more open to farm thorium ore, such as EPL or burning steppes.

To those Mages, Prot Pallies and whomever else can AoE grind, I know a great place that you can AoE grind and farm this. The area is much more favorable for leveling then it is for farming thorium, but it is great for doing both.
In the Western Plaguelands, you can AoE grind in Hearthglen on the level 55-57workers and there are 4-5 Rich Thorium veins throughout the area that you can mine on your downtime.
I would start at the Lumber Mill near the entrance to Hearthglen and AoE down all the workers in there. When I did this, there was an Elite that pathed up and down on the road right next to the Lumbermill, so beware of him.
After that, I would move to the mine just passed the tower, which had 3-4 Rich Thorium Vein spawns. You can AoE the fairly large group of mobs out front near all the wagons and inside the Blacksmith (This may need to be broken into two separate pulls if you're having trouble). After that you can go into the mine and AoE the Workers in there as well. 1-2 Rich Thorium spawn inside and 1-2 spawn outside on the rocks of the mine entrance and on the hill to the west of the entrance.
West of the mine is the Mardenholde Keep. On either side of the keep are Sentinels training, you can pull the small group on the northern side (These can also be pulled with the Blacksmith if you're feeling brave) and kill them and then pull the group on the southern side with the workers in the stables. I do not recommend going inside the keep as there are random elites that walk around. There is a Rich Thorium Vein which spawns behind Mardenholde Keep, so don't forget to check back there.
There is a Rich Thorium Vein behind the Town Hall, but I DO NOT recommend trying to AoE the Paladins inside as they heal themselves and there are only 3-4. Also there is a group near some large ballistas beside the Town Hall, don't pull them because there are sometimes priests that cast and the melee are paladins that heal. Also, avoid going inside any of the Houses, they usually have priests or mages.
After I've checked behind the Town Hall, I would head back to the Lumbermill and start again!
A couple of important notes here, make sure that you mount up before you make the pull and these mobs DO RUN AWAY IN FEAR, so if you don't have a way of stopping them,
Avenger's Shield
or
Improved Blizzard
for example, I don't recommend farming here.

Un'Goro Carter is the best place to farm Thorium ore.
The smaller veigns are located on the edge of the mountains around Un'Goro, The rich veigns are located more in the center and around fire plume ridge.

If you want to farm Thorium in Eastern Plaguelands... you better do it early in the morning or after most people went to bed. There are lots of possible spawns, but only few veins. If someone is also farming in Plaguelands, you can almost forget it. I skilled mining with 3 chars in the last months - with every char I almost spent ~1 hour for 5 skillpoints 245+
I also got chain dismounted when I farmed Thorium at lvl 65 in EPL.

I farm thorium in Dire Maul, as a previous poster had mentioned. I havent timed myself but I find that i get myself locked out, and each run yields 2-3 rich thorium veins, meaning 10-15 rich veins in an hour... its not the fastest method but it is stable, noone can mine all your veins out since they are instanced.
Basically run in the open instance portal that doesnt require a key, you will be up on a ledge with some small lashers down below... Jumping down will give you a ton of fall damage so if you can heal yourself it makes things easier, or if you are a warrior a well timed charge or intercept on one of the mobs below can save all of the fall damage.
Run straight down the path, past the corrupted tree and into the door at the end, run through this room and cross the pool with the Water Elemental boss (kill him on the way if u like to vendor blues, they can be worth up to 5g) to the door at the other end, up the ramp will be a Satyr boss who is easily killed, and who will release the corrupted tree once killed. Jump down off the balcony and run back through the door you first entered into out into the courtyard and talk to the tree, he will open the door at the other end of the courtyard.
Through the door run straight ahead and again you will have to jump down to the boss, if you can charge, jump straight down and charge the boss to avoid the damage, if not then land on the column first, and then jump down again to avoid dying. When you kill this boss be sure to pull him against the wall you jumped off of and behind one of the pillars, otherwise the plant adds in his room will aggro and cost you some time to kill. Travel through the tunnel that opens up to find your thorium.

The Garrison Armory in the northern part of the blasted lands has several thorium, mithril and gold veins - in 10-15 min, I had 12 thorium, 11 mithril and 3 gold.

Marcucus
Thorium Ore sells for huge amounts of gold these days, it sells for 3 times the price of saronite (75g+ a stack on my server) and is not heavily farmed like wotlk ores. A good way to make a lot of cash. Even better if you dropped a binding of the windseeker in MC and decide to farm a few arcane crystals instead of buying 100 off the AH.

Figured I would put in my results for Winterspring farming:
A relatively thorough circuit, going in the caves with ore and down through Darkwhisper Gorge, took me about 30 minutes and yielded 55 thorium ore, or about 110 ore per hour. This was with Crusader Aura, however.
This was during AM hours and probably with just me in the zone mining, so also relatively optimal conditions.

/agree with the previous post. I wandered into Silithus with my 80 warlock, in an attempt to find enough thorium to push my paladin's blacksmithing to fel iron (which everyone knows is very easy to mine even without an epic flyer). Well...guess what, Thorium comes from Silithus pretty much, there is that much thorium there.
Like the earlier post said, if the node is in a nest, it is either Rich Thorium (which also has a good chance of dropping azerothian diamonds, huge emeralds, etc.) and Truesilver (very useful and rare metal). Also, note that the minimum amount of ore these drop is like 4.
Now, what I did today was mine the northern area Hive Ashi, one small thorium node south of the city there, then the southern nests (Hive Regal). Note that I did not even go to the western "alliance" nest. Now, I have mined over 200 thorium ore, as well as a wealth of gems and arcane crystals with about maybe 30 mins of playtime. All I do is ride around the southern nest a bit, rid north, logoff. Do dishes, look at some notes, or level my alt. I log on maybe in about 45 mins, etc.
Also, even on large servers, the nests are so massive you can probably still nail a few nodes. Also keep in mind that since rich thorium nodes are so productive, you can end with with a stack+ of ore PER NEST you visit!
Anyways, have fun farming this, I like to make money, but I hate price gouging so I'm glad I found a remedy to this. Also note that this is technically easier to mine than mithril, since you can get such a massive amount of the ore in such a small area. Have fun, and I recommend doing this with a character that is about level 68+, so the aggro radius of the mobs are cut significantly, increasing time mining and decreasing time wasted teaching those silly bugs a lesson.

Got 89 thorium, 3 truesilver and 3 mithril ore in 40 mins. not to mention ton of dense stone and minor jems along with a blue that dropped. Plus... there was another lvl 66 farming also!Great place since no one is there. pacific time 1030pm was when I went. Maybe I got lucky. (=

A good place to farm mithril and thorium is blasted lands,especially the alliance mine in the northeastern part of the region.Although there isnt an abundance of nods in the blasted lands,it mostly ally/ miner free so you will be able to farm your thorium with nothing around you.Just you,beautifull nature and nods.

if your still in your 40´s, ally, and you need thorium and cant make it through e. and w. plaguelands and definatly not the hives in silithus. i suggest burning steppes. the mobs are much more spread apart and several deposites have no mobs anywhere near them and a few even have friendlys nearby. it wont yield as much as silithus but at least its something with a minimal amount of corpse runs. most of the mobs can be outran on an epic mount, and it´s less likely to have more than 2 chasing you at one time.

Expect the price on this stuff to drop tremendously when cata is released, since every farmer will be able to farm it with their flyer.

Saiphon
I find Burning Steppes to be a really nice place to farm thorium. Just run full circuits around the mountainside and take a detour to Dreadmaul Rock inside the caves. A circuit can net you almost a full stack if you're lucky. You'll find some mithril as well, that should also sell nicely. And if you find a dark iron vein, mine it too even if you don't need it, because thorium can spawn in its stead.
Happy farming!

There is now a veritable (*^&#-ton of Thorium in Un'goro. They must have changed something in 3.3, because.. it's just.. wow. So much easier leveling Mining now. Getting from 270-295 to advance to the Outlands stuff sucked. Now it happens naturally while leveling.
评论来自

Since 3.3, both the refresh rate and number of thorium nodes (small
and
rich) in Un'goro Crater have been HUGELY increased. I've seen nodes with a respawn time of less that 10 seconds, as well as multiple nodes spawning right next to each other. While farming there, I've passed other miners coming from the opposite direction but still found plenty to mine due to the quick refresh. Seriously, there is no better place for farming thorium.
note: the node increase seems to have only been applied to the edges of the zone, not the volcano. so just run circles around the rim and watch your bags fill!

EDIT:
This guide is
less
accurate now due to the changes of thorium spawning in Un'Goro. Walking around in the caves of Silithus is much more time-consuming then using ur 100% mount in Un'Goro. However, if Un'Goro is crowded by farmers, Silithus is a good second alternative.
Thank you 'spiralingshape' for your info
Thorium
, the radioactive metal
Engineerers
and
Blacksmithers
would pay a fortune to get their hands on.
Since most Tanks have blacksmithing as profession, which needs a lot of thorium for skills, makes this is an extraordinary item to farm.
At level 80 you could without problem mine
10 stacks
of these/hour (+/-). You only need to know where to farm them.
I'm not a big fan of bugs & insects, but my experience tells me that
Silithus
is by the far best place to farm thorium ore, becuase of the fast spawn rate and the numbers of
Rich
veins. There are three areas you wanna visit in Silithus to quickly earn thorium ores.
Hive'Ashi
- In the North
Hive'Zora
- In the West
Hive'Regal
- In the South-East
The thorium does not often spawn on the surface in these 3 areas, you'll have to go underground to find the real treasure.
Each area have 3 caves with big tunnel systems, in each cave you will find 1-2
Ooze Covered Rich Thorium Vein
which will give you average 5x
Thorium Ore
. So, with simple math you should get
30x Thorium Ores
by only visiting all three areas + the ores you may find travelling between the areas. Of course, if there are more players farming them, you'll get less.
After mining from all areas, the ores in the first area you visited
have
respawned. This makes Silithus a non-stop thorium farming place, no matter if you are level 60 or level 80.
While farming
, you will not only make money from the ores, but also from the rocks and gems that
may
drop.
Dense Stone
Arcane Crystal
Star Ruby
Azerothian Diamond
Blue Sapphire
Huge Emerald
Large Opal
Also, to make some
extra money
suggest getting
Agent of Nozdormu
or ask a friend who has it give you
Proxy of Nozdormu
, these items will make you able to loot
these
from the Hive-mobs which can be turned in for reputation with
Brood of Nozdormu
or sold to other players.
IF
you don't have the item I recommend you to NOT waste your time looting any Hive-mobs, since they drop no kind of cash nor item worth selling. However, there's a low chance that they will drop
Brann Bronzebeard's Lost Letter
which gives
Brann's Trusty Pick
as reward.
(I would love to get some
ratings & responses
to confirm this "guide")
Enjoy your farming.

Un'Goro Crater seems to be be packed with Thorium nodes these days. Just run along the mountains and you're bound to find a crapload of nodes. I picked up about 60 pieces of Thorium Ore in about an hour of questing in Un'Goro. This was late at night though, but still, that's a lot of ore. Most nodes are Small Thorium veins, but there are a few Rich ones too.

I don't know what they did to Un'goro Crater. but just running around the perimeter of the zone, like farming in sholazar basin. I picked up about 18 stacks of thorium ore in roughly an hour or so.
I was astounded.
Edit: At the end for power-leveling BS; after 1.5 hours, and with a few people farming there as well. 23 stacks of Thorium, tons of Dense stone, and some random gems.

This is a great money-maker at the moment since people are leveling their alts etc. and buying this ore of the auction house instead of farming. And it's by far the easiest ore to farm. Just head out to the Un'goro crater and do 1 lap and you'll get approximately 40-80 Thorium Ore depending on your luck with Rich veins.
Then they usually sell for 30-60g per stack. That's 60-240g per lap, which takes roughly 15 min to complete.

For both Small Thorium and Rich Thorium veins, go to Ungoro Crater (level 48+ zone). Thorium O' Plenty. I found about 10-15 nodes along the mountains there that surround the Ungoro zone. Just do the loop around the zone and you can't help but run into them all. However, there can be a lot of people in the area mining as well during peak hours, but that goes for any type of ore I guess. Best place by far for Thorium though. Get to it.

Are you sure it is a glitch, it could be a strategy from another miner. Snatch the ore, leave the stone to make other miners be frustrated. It was at least common sometime ago for miner to do this to try to scare other miners off.
It could be as you said a glitch also but you never know:)

Despite there being several good locations for mining extensive ammounts of thorium ore, my preferred one would still be Un'Goro Creater.
The fastest way to find nodes in Un'Goro is to simply do circular circunventions of the area. A full circunvention, starting and ending in Marshall's Refuge almost always yields 2 or 3 stacks of thorium ore, occasionally even more than that, plus several precious stones that can be sold in the AH.
That makes an average of 60 thorium ores per circunvention of the area, making it in my eyes a prime location for farming Thorium.

Quite honestly, I believe they upped the respawn rate on this. I did a lap in Un'goro and by the time I came back to where I started, there were 3 more nodes, and I had ~28 ore in my bag from the first circuit.

fredd13
Definitely. Un'Goro is now THE place for Thorium - it's come down with a bad case of rampant nodes recently (presumably to give people a half-decent way of levelling BS in one lifetime). I'm using Gatherer, and it's reporting huge numbers of "new" nodes around the whole outside (by which I mean nodes I haven't seen before, and that aren't in the database I've downloaded either). Many of them are rich ones, especially in the southern half of the area. Very few are set back any distance from the crater floor, either, so almost all of them show up if you just run around the edge in a circle. Struggling into the awkward places such as the caves is just a waste of mining time, because there's another node waiting just a few more yards round the edge. I netted 160 ore in two quick circuits last night (almost exactly 80 per circuit).
Edit:
Added another 4 circuits this evening, making 6 in all.
Total:
448 thorium
596 dense stone
(plus small quantities of mithril and truesilver)
Also:
2 blue sapphire
7 star ruby
6 huge emerald
2 large opal
5 azerothian diamond
13 arcane crystal
2 black vitriol
My yield per circuit held up initially. I definitely had competition during the final two circuits, though, and my totals for each were about 20 down on the previous ones (roughly 60 per circuit as opposed to 80). Approximate time for a full circuit, 15 minutes (level 76 character on epic land mount) - so that's one thorium roughly every 12 seconds overall.

Did a test to see how much would drop with an hour of running the edge of Un'goro. Had about 4~5 others (that I saw) also running it so here are the results:
319 * Thorium Ore
413 * Dense Stone
5 * Large Opal
1 * Azerothian Diamond
4 * Star Ruby
3 * Blue Sapphire
7 * Mithril Ore
2 * Huge Emerald
14 * Arcane Crystal
5 * Black Vitriol
Came out to around 625 gold in one hour (not including the time cost of returning to city and posting items). Tempting to simply drop the Dense Stone as it has almost no value on my server (5 silver each) and would significantly increase the amount of time between city runs. Only problem with this run as a gold source is that with so much thorium hitting the market, prices will tend to fall significantly. Best soulution to this would probably be to do a run every other day and slowly leak it onto the market. While doing this run, I also grabed some of the Un'goro Soil between nodes as it usualy goes for about 1g a piece, stacks to 100, and drops in fairly large batches. Gave me an extra 50 gold bringing this to ~675 gold in one hour. Good luck!

Un'goro Crater is a insanely great place to farm thorium ore! One circuit gave me 5 stacks, yes, 5 stacks of thorium ore. The veins basically spawn almost instant, once I mined an rich thorium ore, started moving and a new vein popped on the minimap before I could get out of the scanners range. Just circuit around the edges, lots of thorium ore guaranteed if there is no competition.

I farmed for about 1 hour of Thorium in Un'goro Crater at about 3-4am server time since no one was online i got at least 200 ores easy. After that I lost the count but I would say that in a few minutes if no one else is in there you could make yourslef some decent gold in no time since this is probably the ore that is the highest lvl before Outlands (without counting Elementium Ore in BWL) and i recomend to all miners to NOT smelt the ores and simply sell them on the AH (if the ores worht more then bars of course) because JC need them to prospect. But if you will use the bars as a blacksmith (or enigeering) you should maybe get some few more for some extra gold in your pocket. ;)

1 Lap around un'goro got me 6-10 stacks of thorium ore (no1 farms it on my backwater server) and the gems sold in less than 10 minutes and i made triple the amount of gold i would have made from just thorium ore since it only goes for like 8g a stack of thorium.

i went to un'goro crater with a mining skill of 250, a gatherer glove (in case i found rich veins before 255) and 6 thorium ores in my bags. started at marshal refuge in a circle just near the edges of the area. next time i got to the starting point i had a skill of 277 and 82 thorium ores so i guess this makes un'goro the best place for thorium

Okay people, we get how great it is for farming Thorium ores. That's enough, please.

Silithus.....Thorium Veins all over the place....Above as well as under ground.
1 trip around the WHOLE map = 272 Ore, 10 Arcane Crystall & 8 other Gem's and enough Dense Stone to make 71 Dense Grinding Stones
Ive been there in my young days, but now the density is trippled.....

As of 4.0.3a, Swamp of Sorrows seems to be a good place to mine these now. If anyone knows a better place, please let us know.

As in 4.0.3a I found a lot of it in Blasted Lands, but some - few - nodes are unreachable without a flying mount.
Edit: 4.0.3a ofc

Winterspring is a hell of a good place to go if your looking for thorium.

In my experience (which is extensive) the best place to farm thorium ore is Silithus, which I believe was stated above, due to the rate at which you will encounter a node AND the chance of that node being a rich one. I do not know if they have buffed the rate at which nodes spawn, spawn locations, etc., but in literally 1 hour I can have x12 stacks of thorium ore by running a route around Silithus. The downside: stacks on my server are going for 10g.

I was just updating a spreadsheet I have been using for various reasons with regards ores. I haven't updated for quite some time, I may be repeating something already mentioned but this ores prospecting contents appear to have changed.
Azure moonstone,Blood Garnet,Deep Peridot,Flame Spessarite, Golden Draenite, shadow draenite, Sky Sapphire used to have a 2% chance in prospecting
Blue Saphire has gone from 26% to 31% chance in prospecting.
Huge Emerald has gone from 26% to 30% chance
Large Opal 27% to 32%
Star Ruby down from 20% to 16%
These figures were all wowhead figures long before Cata but certainly valid during Wrath.
It may not mean much or have much use to anyone but anyone, the figures and contents have changed just in case you didn't notice ;)

A very good spot to farm this is just inside a cave in Swamp of Sorrows. At coords 66.7 , 74.3 - Stagalbog cave. The respawn rate is pretty fast.

After Cata came out, one of the best places for me is Ungoro Crater. The nodes are very, very common and close to each other, and between half and 2/3 are rich thorium veins.

I have came across a grinding spot for thorium ore and i found a nice spot that is not listed. in blasted lands all you have to do is fly around there and its all over but the best tip is that a little bit over in the tainted forest is the gold mine.... nothing but rich thorium ore is in that area, so if u fly around for a bit your time will be worth it rather than going over to the other side of the wow world. enjoy farming!

In my experience, I found that Swamp of Sorrows is a decent place for Thorium Ore. I was only farming it for about 20 minutes and go about 2 stacks. I also tried Blasted Lands and only found 2 veins and a LOT of mobs. Take into mind, I'm a level 52 holy priest running around looking for ore and there are a lot more higher leveled mobs in Blasted Lands than in Swamp of Sorrows. That's my take. Definitely a good substitution for having to travel to Kalimdor and go to Un Goro Crater.

I've found Winterspring to be a good place. Just going back and forth between the yeti cave at Ice Thistle Hill and the demon cave at Mazthoril. Saves a lot of running around lapping maps as each place has about 5/6 nodes in it per run. And that's not counting anything you come across in between the two.

Just did a run through Un'Goro. Started at Marchal's Refuge and sent around just the circumference of the crator twice to see what I could get (mining ore for my alt). Total time less than 30 minutes.

9 Mithril ore
217 Dense Stone
8 Arcane Crystal
2 Azerothian Diamonds

I decided to farm this ore with the new azeroth flying thing because i was levelling BS on my alt and i was shocked by AH prices.
I don't know if it was an amazing luck or what, but i farmed 5 stacks and half in literally 10 minutes in winterspring...

I know it's been mentioned before but I would just like to confirm that Un'Goro Crater is definetely THE place to get Thorium Ore. The simplicity of the map means you just have to run round the full circle, staying close to the mountains that surround it. I also noticed insane amounts of Rich Thorium Vein, which is good because you'll get more in a quicker amount of time. With Master Riding, this will be an enjoyable cakewalk.

My spot is also Un'goro crater! i just got 13 stacks in about half an hour! and you don't even have to go searching for it! just go around in a circle and you're good.

As other posts have stated, Silithus is the best place to farm these. After cata hit, Hardly ANYBODY has a reason to go here anymore. That means this place is PACKED with mining nodes. During my trip here, I came across nearly every single rare spawn in the area. So get some greens out of your mining trip aswell :)

Ok so as I was reading this I was currently lvling up Jewelcrafting on a toon and needed some Huge Emeralds for the 10 skill points you basically cannot circumvent with another item.
Decided to go with Un Goro for the thorium needed to break into gems so I switched to my herber/miner Dk (why waste profession slots on gathering on real classes).
Timed myself for EXACTLY 30mins
These are the results:
3.5 trips around the outskirts following the mountain range
355 Thorium Ore (17 stacks with remainder of 15)
446 Dense Stone (22 stacks with remainder of 6)
4 Truesilver Ore
2 Mithril Ore
45 Mountain Silversage
24 Golden Sansam
13 Dreamfoil
3 Blindweed
8 Arcane Crystal
2 Large Opal
4 Huge Emerald
2 Blue Sapphire
1 Citrine
3 Azerothian Diamond
2 Black Vitrol
aside from these items and being that i cannot pass up killing a rare i also received 3 green gears and 3 Guardian Stones.
now if you take an avg of 3 main product from each node thats 148.66 nodes which comes out to 20 secs per node. this includes the time it took turn and hit random elites.
Getting really technical with this if you replace the 30 non thorium nodes with thorium instead that would add another 4.5 stacks to your total.
We will leave out the mobs encountered. No sense in getting too deep into it.
But, if you figure on druids not needing to dismount/mount that takes another 1.5sec off each node. Given the same amount of time with the same path and fly speed (310%) go ahead and add another 11 nodes or approx 33 ore.
Giving us a grand possible total of 478 Thorium Ore ( 23 stacks with remainder of 18)
@ 24 stacks of ore in 30mins flat why even bother with any other area considering the simplicity of Un Goro?
BTW on my server 24 stacks Thorium Ore = 1800g
3600g/hour not too shabby
Edit: I hope this helps those on the fence about where to snatch up their ores.....Happy Gathering!

Silithus was awesome.
It was not uncommon to see multiple Thorium nodes on the minimap.
Thorium and Truesilver were the only nodes I found.
I simply flew around the perimeter.
Nodes everywhere.
I didn't really give Un'Goro much of a chance after the first two nodes I found there were Mithril.

Moxon
Can confirm Un'Goro is brilliant for this. At level 65, one lap around the crater takes my rogue just below 10 minutes of flying. Half an hour, doing 3 laps, in the middle of the day, gave me:
295 Thorium ore (14+ stacks)
15 Mithril ore
5 Arcane Crystals
3 Huge Emeralds
3 Star Ruby
1 Large Opal
1 Black Vitriol
373 Dense Stone (18+ stacks)
23 Solid Stone
And that's with the slowest flying mount. The ores spawn like crazy, sometimes one will spawn right next to where you just mined one.
Highly recommended.
Oh, and if you're going to spend some time farming here, you might want to pick up
Toxic Tolerance
, which eventually leads to you getting a
Venomhide Ravasaur
. Sure, it takes 20 days, but that's just another excuse to keep mining, right? ;)

Ran around Un'goro Crater, each lap netted me about 3 stacks worth of ore (60 bars.), so another 8 or so laps around the circuit should get you what you need for the thorium hump in BS.
This doesn't include the 15 minutes total I wasted trying to get nodes I couldn't reach on a ground mount :/ There's two or three. Irked me, more then anything.

I filtered through looking for any updates for Cataclysm to see if Un'goro was still the best place and I didn't see one. I figured since the area didnt change the drop rates wouldnt either.
10 minute pass mostly around the outside ring yielded
69 Thorium Ore
98 Dense Stone
2 Star Ruby
4 Arcane Crystal
1 Huge Emerald
4 Truesilver Ore
7 Mithril Ore
So overall still not a bad area.

If you're looking for Thorium, stick to Silithus.
Thorium and Truesilver are the only nodes around, and most of them are Rich veins. Unlike previous expansions, there are dozens of nodes up at once, so seeing 3-4 on your map is common. On top of this, there is very little (if any) competition.
The Hives are no longer the only hot spots for nodes in the zone, so it's the same as any other zone these days.

Un'Goro Crater truly is the place for Thorium, both for leveling mining and farming the materials. This is what I got during 30 minutes time while going around the zone clockwise with fastest flying speed (310% + Crusader Aura). On Sunday morning 10AM server time:
220x Thorium Ore
292x Dense Stone
6x Mithril Ore
4x Arcane Crystal
3x Black Vitriol
2x Azerothian Diamond
2x Huge Emerald
1x Blue Sapphire
1x Star Ruby
And mining profession was raised from 225 to 285 skill level.

A caveat regarding the above comments:
The Shattering realigned the resources and difficulty of many zones, so any advice regarding farming spots may be obsolete. While Winterspring, Blasted Lands, and Silithus are still 55-60 zones (and thus are likely to contain Rich Thorium Veins), the Plaguelands are now 35-45 zones. The mining nodes in those zones are more likely to hold Mithril now.

I'll tell ya, one place that is great for mining Thorium is Mazthoril in Winterspring. On my last run, I got 3 rich veins, and 2 smalls. I also got a buncha good loot from the monsters in there. The respawn rate for the veins is great and there is hardly ever anyone around. I go there every thirty or so minutes to find, on average, 2 Rich veins, with the occasional small thrown in. Check it out sometime, it's totally worth it!

My two cents as well...
I flew around Un'Goro for 30 minutes and got around 200 ore, but there was some competition, so I tried Silithus for an hour. Here's what I got out of Silithus:
Thorium Ore: 543
Truesilver Ore: 25
Blue Sapphire: 2
Star Ruby: 6
Arcane Crystal: 13
Azerothian Diamond: 5
Black Vitriol: 2
Huge Emerald: 2
Large Opal: 2
Dense Stone: Metric #$%^-ton (deleted, its worthless)
As other posters have noted, since Cata, Silithus is virtually empty, so its a great spot! I didn't bother going into any of the caves, around the perimeter only.

Granted, you can probably get more ore in Silithus or Winterspring, but if you are going about your business in SW, and want to pop out to farm the ore for a bit, you can just take the portal in the Mage Quarter and hearth back when you're finished. It's a lot quicker than spending all the time flying to more remote zones.

Boy, I'm scared to even add this comment because I like all you miners spending time in zones that seem totally depleted on high pop servers like mine. On my server, Un'Goro has been a joke as long as I can remember. Sometimes I'll take a quick loop around the zone and frown at the 5-10 nodes I find just to reassure myself that it does still suck.
Winterspring. No going in caves. No competition. Oftentimes a new node pops up on your minimap (if you calibrate like mine - max zoom out, then zoom+ twice) while you're mining. It's a very LARGE zone, too. Meaning that in one circuit 15+ stacks is rather ordinary, and by the time you finish the circuit there's a bunch more. The last time I ran 'numbers' on this zone (timing my farming) I ended up with about 20 stacks for a guildie and it took all of about 45 minutes.
I will admit, this is much easier with a flying mount, but I have done it on a level 58 DK with a normal mount and it wasn't so bad that I was willing to go stare at dinosaurs whilst failing to find ore.
Anyways, assuming you get the route/mountain-positioning right, I'm sure you'll be back to upvote after you give Winterspring a try ;)

Go to WINTERSPRING!
Had always gone to Un'Goro in the past to farm this so went there this time on a lower alt needing to level Engi. There were 4 or 5 level 90 horde and alliancer's flying around the area, beating me to all of the mines. Hopped over the wall to Silithus and there were just as many people flying around looking for it. Went all the way up to Winterspring and did one big loop of the hills and ledges, got the 200 ore I needed, 200 dense stone and there was no-one else farming!

This ore, in my opinion, has become a nasty victim to the cross-realm zones. While it pretty much goes without saying, you're going to have to wander out and take a test flight through an area, because you can't /who a zone to get an accurate read. While Silithus and Winterspring generally only have 2 - 3 additional people on my realm, the CRZ effectively opens up the zone to other realms, and you won't be able to see these other people on your /who.
Silithus tends to be completely farmed out on my server because of this (your mileage may vary), even if I'm the only one showing up on my /who. Winterspring suffers the same, but if you fly a tighter circle through this area, the additional cliffs and valleys through this zone will help net you additional ore to at least bolster what you're fighting over. Blasted Lands remains fairly touch and go. All of these zones are subject to being completely mined out thanks to the CRZ.

This is a great ore to farm, not only because of its abundance in Winterspring, but the gems that come from this.
I farmed 340 ore and sent them to my jewelcrafter to be prospected. Here are the results:
巨型绿宝石
x32
大猫眼石
x25
艾泽拉斯钻石
x23
蓝宝石

红宝石
x3
32+25+23+14+3=97 Gems ---> 2000g
340 ore ---> 510g
340 bars---> 780g
It is obvious that you will make a lot more money prospecting your leftover thorium ore or having someone do it for you.
Edit: You cannot obtain
奥术水晶
through prospecting. It can only be found while actually mining thorium veins.

As others have said, the two main zones for thorium ore are Silithus and Winterspring. Both zones have one neutral flight path/hub (i.e. Cenarion Hold and Everlook). Due to Blizz's introduction of cross realm zones, nowadays I think what really matters is your competition. If you see (in any given ~minute of time) a half dozen or more players at either hub, or if you see more than two to four other players mining thorium ore (while you are), you might want to try the other zone. For example, I found 4 other players mining Winterspring. So I went to Silithus, and there I saw no other miners. You may experience the opposite situation. Or there are times when both zones can be heavily farmed. Typically quickest way to Silithus (for level 83 or greater) is via the (Stormwind or Orgrimmar) portal to Uldum. Unlike every other Cataclysm zone, Uldum has no portal back. Before you take that portal to Uldum, you might check your hearthstone's setting.

So I decided to farm 660 thorium ores, as this is how much I needed to level BS, JC and engineering.
For a long time my favourite place was Un'goro Crater, but many ppl here recommended Silithus, so I decided to give it a try.
Here's what I got in 1h 11min:
Silithus:
* 1st run - 18min - 172 ores (that was a test run, I checked some caves, but it took way too much time to get in and out)
* 2nd run - 13min - 142 ores
* 3rd run - 12 min - 121 ores (seen 1 more person farming as well)
* 4th run - 11min - 79 ores (at this point I had to compete with 2-3more ppl and it wasn't profitable anymore)
I still needed some more ores so I flew to Un'goro to see how it compares:
* 1st run - 9min - 79 ores
* 2nd run - 8min - 79 ores
Total:
- 672
Thorium ores
- 30
Truesilver ores
- 60 green gems (including 29x
Arcane Crystal
)
- 6 greens from rares (lvl 49-52)
So in conclusion, Silithus is the best map for farming thorium ore / green gems, but if the competition is too high and you're getting less than 80 ores pet loop, you might wanna check Un'goro :)
Happy hunting!

Personally, I prefer running around the edges of Swamp of Sorrows. There are several places where the veins, both small and rich, can be found pretty close to each other, and the respawn time is good if you decide to fly around too. My favorite spot is the cave in Stagalbog, where that Faceless One is controlling several amphibic/humanoid creatures.

After that, i went to Silithius, this is what I got in 1 hour:
24 stack of , (480 pieces),
33 stack of ,
12 ,
4 ,
5 ,

4 .
So, guess is pretty much the same, I should mention that I did the farming when no one else were around, so these results were for one miner, but, as I saw earlier, lots of ppl prefer the Un'Goro, for questing or farming, for this reason you might have more luck in Silithius. I really hate those mazed caverns, I didn't even bothered entering, unless the mining node was close to the entrance, or I saw more then one node.
So..good luck everyone and.." May your pickaxe never dull " :P

As of 5.4 I say Un Goro has more ore node than Silithus compared to its "easiness". I just made a one trip around the Un Goro and almost half of nodes I found was rich.

CRZ has done no favours for miners. However, once you get to the 275-300 lvl Blacksmithing range go mad in Silithus for Thorium. Loads of the stuff & for some reason this region is low pop, so if you have an above average ilvl it's a breeze.
Winterspring is much more of a chore at least on my server. Far fewer nodes & more players around to compete for them. Good thing about Thorium is that you can farm enough to get your skill lvl to the point where you don't need to hunt down Fel Iron.
HFP is mobbed with noobs in Outland, many wanting to level mining/blacksmith so although there are plenty of nodes for Fel Iron they get hit very often. Flying around Outland looking for nodes is not my idea of fun so if you can bypass this chore so much the better.

Silithus

This is a

zone.
I love farming this location because it nets a ton of Thorium Ore. It also has several ore in underground hives that I don't go into. Despite this, the amount of ore you can get in this zone is great. Best of all, you don't get too close to any opposing faction areas.
Thorium Ore – 462

Un'Goro Crater

This is a
contested
zone.
And I'm actually kind of surprised that it didn't net as much ore as I'd thought it would. The nodes aren't as clustered and close together as the ones in Silithus, however it's a very simplistic route that circles the border of the zone.
Thorium Ore – 368
★
Winterspring
★
This is a
contested
zone.
The first route in Winterspring isn't a bad one and can net you a lot of ore. This zone has a lot of trees that could get in the way of your finding one of the ore nodes, but that's the only annoyance.
Thorium Ore – 378

Hey guys - I can see a lot of you guys are saying that Silithus are the best mining spot, then it comes to Thorium mining, and yes that's true.. At least you wanna find the place with most Thorium Ores. The only problem about this is that there is too many caves, and too much space between the ores, compared Un'goro Crater.
Soo, Un'Goro Crater i definitely my choice. And if you want to find the most efficient place to farm it - It's definitely there.
I stated farming in Silithus because a lot of you guys said it's the best place to farm the ores, but then i took a look at Un'Goro Crater, and i it was a huge success compared to Silithus.
In Silithus I farmed for about 30 min, and got 96 thorium ores, but then i moved to Un'goro crater and i almost got double as much (152 ores + a Archaeology digging site) + 795 worth of gems in 40 min.
The actual reason why Un'goro Crater is so much more efficient than Silithus is because you're literally just moving in a circle around the edge and there is zero caves you need to take (there is one at the south, but i woudn't recommend to go in there).
Another good advise is to use the addons: GatherMate2, GatherMate2_date and Routes, and those can all be find on the Curse Client.
I then made a route using Routes over Un'Goto Crater and then deleted the 6-8 at the middle spire + 5 at the bottom, because it wouldn't be efficient enough to go there.
EDIT:
Also seems like the spawn rate on Rich Thorium Veins are a lot higher in Un'Goro Crater ^^
A last thing i would like to mention is that Silithus is filled with really big caves, and i mean REALLY BIG CAVES (got lost like 3 times in those), and i honestly think almost 1/3 of the veins in Silithus is in those caves. So yeah, even though there is almost double as many ores in Silithus, i wouldn't be able to mine them fast enough before they re-spawn.

I prospected 1000 Thorium Ore, here are the results:
70 Blue Sapphire
68 Huge Emerald
65 Large Opal
69 Azerothian Diamond (nice)

Well i just went on a AZ diamond farming spree. Was bored. The best way to get these is mining Thorium ore or prospecting the before mentioned ore.
So first, the best place to farm Thorium ore is Un Gorro Crater, so much ore there it is insane. Second, the numbers are:
After farming 18 stacks x 20ore/per stack i got:
2x az diamonds, 2x large opals, 6x stsr ruby, 2x black vitriol, 3x blue saphire, 14x arcane cristal and a whole lot of dense stone which i sold to a vendor, it is basically worthless.
After prospecting all these ores (360peaces) I got total: 22x az diamond (yaay), 14x arcane cristal, 17x star ruby, 28x large opals, 22x huge emerald and 28x blue saphire.

Not sure what is going on, but there were ZERO thorium veins in Silithus
