Location and Purpose of Special Veins: Rethban Ore - Any Copper or Tin mine in Redridge Mountains will drop these randomly. Rethban Ore's for a quest given by Foreman Oslow, in Redridge Mountains. He should be located at the southeast side of Lakeshire. This isn't really related to mining, since mobs will drop it just as frequently, but I added it by request.
Incendicite - Wetlands, in the cave directly north of Dun Algaz on the map. Incendicite is the objective of the alliance quest Search for Incendicite, which is given to you by Pilot Stonegear in Dun Morogh.
Indurium - Inside Uldaman, in the various tunnels. Indurium is the objective of the neutral quest Indurium Ore given by Pozzik at the race track in Thousand Needles.
Lesser Bloodstone - Arathi Highlands, in the northeast corner of the map. Lesser Bloodstone Ore is the objective of the alliance quest Favor for Krazek, given by Krazek in Booty Bay.
Dark Iron - In Blackrock Depths and Molten Core, deposits can be found in any of the numerous caverns. You can also find a occasionally rare deposit in Searing Gorge or Burning Steppes (more often in Burning Steppes but still rare).
